Which Lee Van Cleef character do you prefer? Read On

[Tucumcari Bound]

Do you prefer Col. Mortimer from For a Few Dollars More or Angel Eyes from The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly. Personally, I loved him as the good guy in Col. Mortimer. Lee Van Cleef is well known for playing the villain. It was kinda cool seeing him team up with Clint's character in For a Few Dollars More. The ending converstaion between the two of them is memorable. I wish we could of seen more movies with the two of them. Lee Van Cleef and Clint Eastwood maid a great on screen duo.

Out of his entire career (That I have seen) his role as Mortimer was his most accomplished. He reprised the same role as a different character in "The Grand Duel", great performance, great script.

don't agree at all, he's best as Ryan in "Death Rides a Horse" and Corbet in "The Big Gundown".

I prefer his Col. Mortimer best of all.

I just bought Death Rides a Horse. I have yet to see it yet. I did put it in the dvd player and started it, but the quality was so bad, I got annoyed and turned it off. I don't understand how they can release a movie that looks so bad, especially on dvd. I hope to sit through it soon though just to see Lee Van Cleef's performance.

You got the wrong one, the Direct Source DVD POS from Canada right, lol. I think its pan and scan too.

so you don't agree Mortimer is his best role? Because that is what I said.


Corbet and Ryan are nothing like Mortimer. Clayton is the most similar.

[cigar joe]

Clayton is similar but the but alas the film is not nearly as good as DRAH or TBG.

Didn't say they were bad films

[Sackett]

I have to go with Col. Mortimer.  He has class and dresses cool.

[Groggy]

When I created this thread a couple years back Angel Eyes won pretty handily.

Now it seems like the Colonel is running away with it.  Yay! 

[The Peacemaker]

I like Mortimer much better than Angel Eyes.

  Or a prequel, the events leading up to FAFDM.  You could end it with him getting on the train to Tucumcari.  And I'll join the group, I'd take Colonel Mortimer over Angel Eyes, although they're obviously both great characters.

jumping josaphat ! sure am glad i thought of this first, lol
your idea opens new vistas. i guess the reason they didn't do this is they wern't yet aware of what an impact the dollars trilogy would become as time marches on. they could still do it especially w/ such a hard core hanger's-on  as our lot foaming at the mouth for something just like what you've concocked tim.  i have regained the will to live
