The following year, he demonstrated that the first film was no fluke with For a Few Dollars More, cementing Clint Eastwood’s “Man with No Name” as a genre icon and spawning a legion of imitators.
In the Old West, two rival bounty killers (Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef) hunt the same target: the psychopathic bandit known as “El Indio” (Gian Maria Volonté). The price on his head is high – but one of the hunters harbours a secret personal vendetta. Forming an uneasy alliance, the pair succeed in infiltrating El Indio’s gang...
but as greed begets violence, the hunters become the hunted, leading to a final showdown in a circle of death. Made with a much higher budget than its predecessor, For a Few Dollars More expanded the canvas of Leone’s mythic, feverish vision of the western and further developed his unmistakable authorial signature. Fully uncut and newly restored in sumptuous 4K with a plethora of new and archival bonus features, the Man with No Name returns in deadly style.
