The laughs in the English version are priceless. Priceless. Hahaha.

This scene first lays the tone and groundwork for the No-Name character.

I think it set it for the whole of Eastwood career as a movie actor and for the other action heroes who came after.

True.

The thing one can't help wondering watching this short clip over and over is how come Lorenzo Robledo never got a bigger (bad boy) part later in his career. Eastwood is the man-with-the-lines in this scene but Robledo holds his ground very well; he obviously understands the mule don't like people laughing, and that it's better to be quiet, even if you gotta bite a bullet soon. The other guys are no more than clowns - he appears (almost) mean.

No matter how cleverly you sneak up on a mirror, the reflection always looks you straight in the eye.

He did get a pretty meaty part in FAFDM.

Just think how much damage he'd have delivered, say, in the Dirty Harry series.
