    Ecstasy Of Gold Lives Forever......

    I'd never even heard of this before and I just happened to see it on Netflix. At least they realize that Good the Bad and the Ugly is the cinematic masterpiece of Westerns. What an amazing film. Brilliantly scored by Ennio Morricone, one of the greatest composers of all time.

    And wow, all the effort that was put in by true fans of the film, and the art...to restore this cemetery. Amazing.

    And the contributions by James Hetfield. Ennio Morricone. and then.... a word from 'God' haha, Clint Eastwood himself.

    What an amazing accomplishment for the fans of Good , Bad , Ugly and of Leone, Morricone and Eastwood, Van Cleef, and Wallach.

    9/10

    The good, the bad and the ... diggers

    I have to admit, that since I just casually listen to Metallica and never attended a concert of theirs (my bad of course), I never realized how much they obviously love that Sergio Leone movie. But they are not alone with that love as this documentary shows. There are quite a lot of people out there and they summoned (or gathered) to find one of the films most iconic "set" (which of course was filmed on location in ... Spain).

    Very engaging and at times also a behind the scenes to the movie itself, this documentary will give anyone who remotely loves the movie something to cheer on. Now not everyone could be there when they did something monumental. Something that took a lot of time and dedication. But they were rewarded - with this documentary and some choice words after completing the "task". As another reviewer stated - very touching indeed

    So uplifting

    The effort, the passion - this is really so uplifting. I felt better after watching this film than for a long time just from the sheer joy and geekery of the film fans who made this happen. Great tale.

    I took a star off for mild length and must admit I span through with fast forward like you do. Well it is a documentary not a narrative.

    No real spoiler to say it contains a lot of facts about the original film and some of those were equally amazing and passion filled on the music, the film making and the scene setting. I'll have to seek out the good the bad and the ugly now and appreciate all those small details like its the first time over again.

    ONLY DEDICATED FANS COULD MAKE THIS HAPPEN

    Many fans of the movie THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY got together and spent their time clearing the site where the movie was originally filmed. They had to clear away 7 inches of dirt to reveal the center circle and put dirt on the graves to make them appear freshly dug. It looked like back breaking work but they managed to clear everything up and then film this great documentary. They made standees of the various characters from the movie so fans could take selfies with their heroes. Clint Eastwood made a short tribute clip which is shown in the movie. In order to raise money for the project, they "sold" name plates for each of the graves. Only TRUE Spaghetti Western fans would want their name displayed there. Someone should talk Mike Ferguson into getting his name on one of those crosses. If you like Spaghetti Westerns, you must see this Documentary. Larry Anderson.
