For a Few Dollars More (1965) is considered as one of the greatest films of the Spaghetti Western, and a masterpiece of Sergio Leone. It's the second film in the Dollars Trilogy, A Fistful of Dollars being the first and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly being the third. Even That Other Wiki named this film as an Epic Western. And for bonus, the intro theme, along with The Good, the Bad and the Ugly theme, is the most known and memorable in the Sergio Leone's Western films.The Man with No Name (nicknamed "Manco", Italian and Spanish slang for "missing one hand", because he does nearly everything with his left hand in order to keep his right hand free to draw and fire) (Clint Eastwood) and Colonel Mortimer (Lee Van Cleef), a skillful Bounty Hunter, are both hunting the famed gang leader El Indio. The Man With No Name is motivated by money; the Colonel, we come to discover, is motivated by revenge. After the two bounty hunters clash, they put aside their differences and team up to capture Indio. As part of their plan, Manco infiltrates Indio's gang by busting one of Indio's friends out of prison. However, the plan does not work out as hoped. | |

Bloodless Carnage: Bullet wounds never cause any blood to appear. Prime examples are the deaths of the lover of Mortimer's sister in the flashback and Cuccillo, both gunned down by El Indio. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Unlike its predecessor, the film manages to be much darker, intense and nihilistic. Also, the main antagonist (El Indio) is a Joker-esque psycho who's far scarier than Angel Eyes. It's telling that many agree this deserved its current R rating more than the other two films in the trilogy. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: Playing cards of the Old West did not have modern numerals on each corner. The number cards were represented by the number of spades, hearts, clubs, or diamonds in the center, six of diamonds had six diamonds in the center. Also, the cards in the movie were modern machine cut plastic coated paper, period cards would have been larger, and of plain pressed paper or wax coated. Mortimer smokes a meerschaum pipe throughout the movie, which is historically accurate; however, the pipe stem is obviously Lucite, a plastic first marketed in 1933. An 1860's pipe stem would be carved of amber, ivory, antler, or bone. When searching old newspapers to determine who is competing with him in El Paso, Colonel Mortimer discovers a front page of the El Paso Tribune from June 15, 1872 with a story about Manco that includes a photograph. The first photograph printed in a newspaper would not occur until March, 1880. In addition, the headline above the photo is of a modern brush-style linotype font. Several times throughout the film when showing close-ups of Indio's men, modern rimless cartridges can be seen in their bandoleers. | |

Facial Dialogue | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_29ad1d69 | comment |
Facial Dialogue: Clint Eastwood is the only one with dialogue in the final duel. Hardly anyone changes expression, Indio doesn't speak after the chimes start, and Mortimer doesn't speak at all. The shifting power dynamics of the scene - Mortimer's anguish at realizing he will be unable to avenge his sister before steeling himself to die without flinching and Indio's smug triumph at catching his enemy at a disadvantage, their mutual shock as Manco appears with Mortimer's watch, Mortimer's relief at being rescued and grim satisfaction at getting to fulfill his vendetta, Indio's smug demeanor giving way to mortal terror when he realizes he's not going to win this shootout, and Manco's deep respect for Mortimer mixed with contempt for Indio - are all shown through the soaring music and the magnificent acting of Lee Van Cleef and Gian Maria Volonte with nothing but facial expressions alone. | |

For a Few Dollars More / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Col. Mortimer's Buntline Special. Its longer barrel gives Mortimer an edge in distance, meaning he can wait out of a pistol's normal range and line up shots, but that same long barrel also prevents him from quickdrawing it, a disadvantage in some of the situations he finds himself in. He carries a derringer up his sleeve for such emergencies. It was somewhat practical for those who preferred a pistol grip as opposed to the lever action. | |

Kick the Dog: Indio gets a lot of them during the film: When orders his minions to sacrifice the family of a man, and to add a properly sadistic touch, he forces the man to watch this. Gets another when he kills Cuchillo (one of his own minions). Then there's the flashback scene. | |

Batman Gambit: Mortimer tells Manco to suggest Indio take his gang north, as it would be a good spot for an ambush. When Indio tells Manco that he is planning to go north anyway, Manco warns him about the possibility of an ambush, and advises him to south instead. Since going west would take them right back where they came from, Indio splits the difference and heads east. Naturally, Mortimer is waiting for them at their destination. | |

G-Rated Drug | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_3aa2ac42 | comment |
G-Rated Drug: El Indio smokes what is presumably marijuana, but it's never mentioned exactly what it is. There's a few points where we see him so stoned he falls asleep with his eyes open or ends up giggling uncontrollably, but other than that the film deliberately makes it unclear whether Indio's psychotic behavior is caused by the drugs, or whether he's actually medicating a mental illness with them and without them he'd be even worse. (The fact that he twitchily requests joints from his underlings after killing people for trivial reasons supports this interpretation). Presumably, the intention was to placate Moral Guardians in America, without ending up in the Reefer Madness hysteria school by claiming weed will turn you into a bipolar rapist. | |

Reminiscing About Your Victims | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_3dec5d4e | comment |
Reminiscing About Your Victims: El Indio sometimes listens to the chime from his pocket watch and reflects on its previous owner, Mortimer's sister, who shot herself with Indio's gun after he killed her husband and raped her. He wistfully dwells on her as if she were "the one that got away," a touch of humanity that ironically makes him seem even more loathsome than if he were recalling his evil deed with the sadistic glee of a Card-Carrying Villain. | |

Honor Before Reason: Manco allows three resting bandits to get to their feet so that they have a fair chance to go for their guns before he dispatches them with his Improbable Aiming Skills. The odd thing is that these men only try to attack him because he just declared his intention to shoot them all, and they otherwise would have continued to regard him as an ally. He planned to kill three non-hostile men in cold blood no matter what happened so why even give them the chance? | |

Let's Fight Like Gentlemen | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_47ae290f | comment |
Let's Fight Like Gentlemen: Averted with Indio, who does everything he can to make certain the odds are always stacked in his favor. Make sure your opponent is outgunned? Check. Put his weapon out of reach? Check. Better yet, just disarm him? Check. This gets turned on its head in the final duel, when he shoots the gun out of Colonel Mortimer's hand. He then starts the chimes on his pocket watch, smirking at the Colonel, whose gun is on the ground several feet away. There's no way Mortimer can get to his gun before getting shot. Indio holds up the watch, saying "When the chimes end, pick up your gun. Go ahead and shoot me, Colonel. Just try." A very tense scene ensues, and Indio is reaching for his gun as the chimes wind down. Cue both of them hearing new chimes, and Manco enters, holding Mortimer's watch in one hand and a rifle in the other. Covering Indio, he goes to Mortimer and gives him his pistol, negating all of Indio's advantages. Once his friend is re-armed and satisfied that the odds are now even, Manco looks at Indio and says "Now we start." Indio doesn't say a word throughout all this but the Oh, Crap! expression on his face speaks volumes. He knows he's a dead man. | |

Ominous Music Box Tune | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_59f4d283 | comment |
Ominous Music Box Tune: El Indio is addicted to a musical pocket watch, which plays Morricone music, and he uses it every time he has a duel, or just kills someone. For the duels, he and his opponent draw when the music ends. As the flashback sequence in throughout the movie keeps extending, showing us more and more of what happened on that rainy night, you realize just how creepy this is, since El Indio got it from a woman whose husband he killed and whom he then raped, driving her to shoot herself. Colonel Mortimer has a matching version because it turns out the woman was his sister. | |

Establishing Character Moment | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_7febc23b | comment |
Establishing Character Moment: Mortimer's amazingly badass entrance.note We first see him walking up to a Wanted poster and examining it. The train dispatcher goes on a long speech about how the guy on the poster is so badass that he added extra zeroes to the bounty because he considered himself worth more than $1000. Mortimer's response is to stare at the guy and take down the Wanted poster, intimidating him into silence. Mortimer then walks to the hotel and goes into the bar, where he unrolls the poster and simply asks the barman "Where is he?" On finding out that the wanted man is upstairs, he goes upstairs, finds the room, hears giggling inside, slips the poster under the door, hears the giggling stop, and knocks on the door before standing aside. Three bullet holes are blasted in the door. Mortimer waits a moment, then kicks the door in and finds a naked woman in the bath. He walks unhurriedly over to the window and sees the wanted man getting away, so he heads for the door, pauses, says "Excuse me, ma'am," with a polite smile and ambles downstairs, to find the guy getting on his horse and riding away. He selects a rifle from his pannier, and shoots the guy's horse, bringing him down. The guy gets to his feet and starts shooting at him, the bullets getting closer and closer to Mortimer. Mortimer completely ignores this, unhurriedly assembles his Colt Buntline with a shoulder stock, then takes aim and, with a single shot, shoots the guy in the head. He then collects his thousand dollars. | |

Facial Composite Failure | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_9ceae394 | comment |
Facial Composite Failure: The "Wanted!" Poster for Guy Calloway doesn't bear much resemblance to the actual man. The poster depicts a dark-haired man with curly hair and a mustache, the real Guy Calloway has red hair in a bowl cut and is mostly clean-shaven. | |

Foreshadowing | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: The scene where El Indio's wanted poster is displayed indicates that there's something more than money on Colonel Mortimer's mind. Instead of focusing on the $10,000 reward, Mortimer draws his attention to the name and the "Dead or Alive" status. The duel between Mortimer and El Indio in the film's climax is very similar to the Mexican Standoff in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly: Both take place in a stonebricked circle in a place filled with corpses. | |

Leitmotif | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_9f6fb586 | comment |
Leitmotif: Manco is represented by a recorder riff, and Mortimer is accompanied by a single twang on a Jew's harp. El Indio is typically accompanied by some sort of bell, be it vibraphone (as his gang sneaks into the prison to free him), tubular chimes (as his eye opens after they enter his cell), or the higher chimes with his pocket watch. | |

Oh, Crap! | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_ad1db87c | comment |
Oh, Crap!: Manco gets one when, after climbing over a wall from a meeting with Mortimer, he steps on, and wakes up, one of El Indio's thugs. Mortimer follows, and gets one when he realizes Manco's not the one holding him up. The pair also get one after Indio successfully robs the El Paso Bank. Manco and Col. Mortimer were lying in wait to pick them off in the gun battle when they tried the bank heist, and had no idea the plans were to steal the other case where the money was truly hidden. They both give each other an "Oh crap" look in the aftermath of the bank heist, before riding off in different directions to meet in the desert. From a solo standpoint, Manco has one after he shoots Mortimer's hat out of range, thus putting Mortimer himself out of range of his bullets. He quickly reloads, but when he fires again, the bullets fall short of Mortimer, and Manco knows he's now defenseless. For a brief moment, you can see some light concern on Manco's face as Mortimer levels off his Buntline Special on him...And then Mortimer simply gets his revenge by blasting six holes through Manco's hat. El Indio gets one when Manco arrives and forces a fair duel between him and Mortimer, with all three present clearly knowing Mortimer is the superior duelist, and that even if El Indio wins Manco will almost certainly gun him down anyways. | |

Take That!: The title is one of these to Jolly Films, the producers of A Fistful of Dollars whose poor treatment of that movie remained a sore spot for Leone. Leone hadn't intended this movie to be a direct sequel, but when Jolly tried to bully him into making the film for them, he not only refused but changed the title purely out of spite. (Leone had the last laugh, as For a Few outgrossed Fistful and became, for several years, the highest-grossing Italian film ever.) | |

Revenge by Proxy: Indio does this early on in the movie to a guy who took money to put him behind bars. The guy had used the money to start a family, and so Indio feels that the family is "partly his." He forces him to watch as his men take the guy's wife and baby boy outside and shoot them both to death, just before sadistically setting up a duel between them using the pocketwatch that he'd made him listen to during the whole thing. | |

For a Few Dollars More / int_bcd27e37 | comment |
Improbable Aiming Skills: In the hat-shooting contest between Manco and Mortimer. Manco eventually proves he is unable to hit Mortimer's hat after shooting it too far away, but makes up for it by hitting the same spot in the ground at that range two times in a row. Mortimer then one ups him by shooting Manco's hat off his head from even father away, and suspending it in the air with every shot. Done a second time later when Mortimer grazes Manco's neck with a bullet, so he'll have a convincing injury to back up his story when he meets up with Indio again. | |

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_bce16d24 | comment |
Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: Subverted, since Indio thought he would have profited from the bounty hunters killing off most of his gang (as he wouldn't have had to split the loot). Of course, it doesn't work out as well as he had planned. Used as a plot point earlier in the movie, when Mortimer intentionally insults the hunchbacked bandit when he's in town. The hunchback is obviously beside himself with rage, and clearly wants to shoot Mortimer in the face, except his compatriots hold him back. "Why would a man have a gun and not use it?" Because they're trying to not catch attention while planning a bank robbery. | |

Supporting Protagonist: Manco gets a ton of screen time, and Eastwood gets top billing, but the story is really about Col. Douglas Mortimer, who gets equal screen time to Manco, and his quest for revenge against El Indio. Manco is only involved for the money, whereas Mortimer has a personal stake against El Indio. This is never more apparent than in the end: It's not Manco that has the final showdown with El Indio, it's Col. Mortimer. Manco certainly assists the colonel in making it a proper and fair fight, but Manco takes a back seat and allows Col. Mortimer to have the satisfaction of ending El Indio, and finally accomplishing his quest for revenge against him for what he did to Col Mortimer's sister. | |

Except not, he instantly recognizes Manco for who he is, but decides to play along and use him later. | |

The Seven Western Plots: Colonel Mortimer's character arc is a revenge story, as he's hunting down El Indio for killing his brother-in-law and raping his sister who killed herself in remorse. In their climactic duel, Indio taunts him by playing his sister's musical pocketwatch and daring him to draw his weapon by the time the music ends, and Manco plays Mortimer's own musical pocketwatch and throws him his gunbelt, allowing Mortimer to finish Indio off. | |

Quick Draw | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_e5a6888c | comment |
Quick Draw: Indio likes to challenge people he's captured to these; playing the Ominous Music Box Tune with its end as the cue to fire. He also likes to place whoever he's facing at a disadvantage, such as surrounding them with goons or removing their guns from easy access. It's only when Manco steps in at the end that he actually has to fight fairly. Also, Indio's heard the song a thousand times while his opponents have no clue when the music might end. This of course puts him on equal terms with Col. Mortimer. | |

For a Few Dollars More / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Discussed In-Universe: Colonel Mortimer provokes the Hunchback by striking a match on his hump; the Hunchback's driven to twitchy irritation but leaves the bar without retaliating. The bartender comments that "if the Hunchback didn't kill you, he must have a pretty good reason." This is because Niño prevents the Hunchback from shooting so as not to draw attention while they scout out the bank. | |

Freudian Trio: Ego: Manco — Interested only in the money, but can Pet the Dog on occasion Superego: Colonel Douglas Mortimer (Retired) — Calm, focused, and devoted to gaining revenge on Indio Id: El Indio — Near psychotic bandito; has rapid mood swings, spends most of the film in a drug-induced haze | |

For a Few Dollars More / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Big Damn Heroes: Clint Eastwood's Man With No Name character saves Mortimer by intervening in Indio's unfair Mexican standoff by providing a gun for him to use against the villain. With his gun trained on Indio, satisfied that the odds have now been evened out in his friend's favor, he says "Now we start", and sits down. | |

For a Few Dollars More / int_f018c5cf | comment |
Offhand Backhand: Manco does this in his opening shootout, after gunning down three men who tried to prevent him from taking in their friend, who had a large bounty on his head. While still looking at the three men he'd just shot down to make certain none of them were getting up, he shot the man behind him and to his left without even turning his head. Said man, the same man he'd come to collect the bounty on, was crawling towards a pistol laying on the floor. Manco heard him moving and simply shot at the same place where he knew the gun was. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending: Despite how dark the film is and all the grueling pain and effort it takes, Colonel Mortimer earns his with the help of Manco, gunning down El Indio in their duel and managing to avenge his long lost sister at last. In the end he parts ways with Manco on good terms, leaving all the money to him, not wanting or needing it, and rides off into the sunset at peace. | |

Reverse Psychology | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_f7588306 | comment |
Reverse Psychology: Colonel Mortimer tells Manco to advise the gang to flee north since there's a good place for an ambush, and the two can catch the gang in a cross-fire. However, Manco wants all the money for himself and advises the gang to go south, pointing out that north would be a good place for an ambush. But Indio doesn't know Manco very well and suspects it may be a trap. So he splits the difference and heads east. When they get there, Manco finds Mortimer waiting for him, explaining that he knew Manco would do the exact opposite of what he said and also knew that Indio is suspicious of betrayal. Since they couldn't go west, as that's where they pulled off their heist, east was the only place they could run. Mortimer employs it earlier when he offers to let Manco take the bounty for Indio while he would collect the larger bounty for the rest of the band, knowing that Manco would instead insist on the opposite and allow Mortimer a better chance to personally have his revenge. | |

Dingy Trainside Apartment | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_f95439a9 | comment |
Dingy Trainside Apartment: Mortimer visits an old man who lives in a house next to the railroad. Apparently, the railroad agent gave him a choice of selling his land, or he'd buy up the land of the guy next door and then all the trains going back and forth all night long would drive him crazy. He certainly appears to have gone crazy, and when Mortimer is leaving the vibrations from a train are knocking the entire house down around his ears. | |

Weapon Specialization | |
For a Few Dollars More / int_fc148c2c | comment |
Weapon Specialization: Each main character has a unique gun. Manco uses a Colt Single Action Army with a 5.5 inch barrel, a.k.a. "Artillery" model with silver rattlesnake grips. Mortimer uses a Buntline Special with an 10 inch barrel as his main weapon. He often attaches a stock to the grip for long distance shots. Indio uses a Buntline Special with an eight inch barrel. | |
