For A Few Dollars More is another famous movie directed by Sergio Leone. One thing i have noticed is that Leone stick to the basic elements of the classic western. Leone creates a mythological place where a man is a good as his gun skills. The two main characters are obviously great with a gun and exhibit there skills by shooting the hats off of each others heads. Another skill one must have is to be able to make the ennemy think they have the upper hand. In Leone's movies the main character is caught off gaurd but kills them with a hidden weapon.
Clint Eastwood appears again in this movie, like most other Sergio Leone movies, as the unknown good guy out to get the bad guys. Lee Van Cleef also stars in this movie but unlike Eastwood he is out for revenge. Like in other Leone movies there are a group of bandits with faces as dirty as their hearts, who of course are after a large amount of money. Just like in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, there is a huge sum of money that the main characters are after and decide to team up to obtain it. The gun fights and other tense moments are typical Leone scenes with the use of a extreme long shot to close up of the mens faces looking at eachother.
On thing that I don't understand is some of the reoccurring mise-en-scene by Leone. For example, there are sveral scenes that Leone has insects in. Most of the times there is a fly on a mans face. it only happens a couple times but i just can't quite understand it.
