Though it is the final instalment of the Dollar Trilogy, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is set in a period earlier than the previous two films. The film stands apart from other westerns as characters are depicted not only with the town but also with their affiliations relevant to the American Civil War that takes place in the background. Considered to be one of the best western films ever made, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly owes a part of its immense success to its now cult opening credits music composed by the great Ennio Morricone, who collaborated with Leone in all his westerns.

This film is screened with the generous support of the Istituto Italiano di Cultura in Istanbul.
