No one made movies like Sergio Leone. In “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly”, he gave us one of the most unforgettable scenes in film history — a man running through a massive cemetery for over three minutes, searching, desperate, with the music building all around him.
Originally, that scene was only meant to last 30 seconds. But when Ennio Morricone delivered the music, it was so powerful that Leone stretched the scene to almost four minutes!
Leone once said, “Music is more expressive than dialogue,” and called Morricone his best screenwriter. That says everything.
Together, they created something truly magical.
The Ecstasy of Gold isn’t just a scene — it’s pure
cinema.
