English Language Broadcast - Rebuilding The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly's Spanish scenery - 24/09/24
Manage episode 441705265 series 1778711
When you think 'American', one of the most American caricatures that may come to mind is the cowboy. The stoicism, the loaded revolvers, the gritty American desert... Only, a lot of the films that created these caricatures of what was so quintessentially American were filmed in the Spanish countryside. In the middle of the twentieth century, the dry south in Andalucía, or the plains of Spain's central regions, were the perfect setting for Hollywood's spaghetti westerns.
Such is the case of The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, the most famous spaghetti western ever made. In the Sabinares de Arlanza-La Yecla Natural Park in Burgos, the Sad Hill Association(named after the cemetery where the final moments of the film takes place) has been rebuilding the sets that were originally made for Sergio Leone's 1966 classic. Dani García of the association tells us all about it.
