The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, and it's not even close. Everything in that film is masterful - From Leone's quick cuts from the immensely harsh desert landscapes to the closeups of character's facial expressions, to the absolutely stellar soundtrack composed by Ennio Morricone, the look and feel of the sparsely populated village encampments, to the civil war battle side story, and the vintage performance by Clint Eastwood (as well as the comic gold given to us by Eli Wallach).
It simply can't be touched. It also can't be stopped, can't be moved, and can't be rocked.
