　　The film tells the story of three men who pursue, often at the expense of others, information about the location of a buried treasure of coins. The first character introduced in the movie is Tuco Benedicto Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez (the Ugly) - called Tuco - (Eli Wallach), who has a bounty on his head for numerous crimes. Tuco has a partnership with Blondie (The Good, played by Clint Eastwood) in which the latter turns him in for the reward money which the two then split after Blondie saves Tuco from hanging at the last moment. Meanwhile, a third character called Angel Eyes (Lee Van Cle, playing the Bad) has learned of a hidden trunk of gold owned by a Confederate soldier named Bill Carson. He sets off to find the gold.

?

　　Soon, Blondie grows tired of his relationship with Tuco, and leaves Tuco in the desert with no water. Tuco survives and is intent on exacting revenge on his former partner. He finds Blondie, and turns the tables by planning to abandon him in the desert. However, bore Tuco can complete his torture in the New Mexico desert, a runaway stagecoach full of dead and dying Confederate soldiers appears. Bill Carson, the man with knowledge of the whereabouts of the gold, dying from thirst, persuades Tuco to get him a drink by disclosing the name of the graveyard where the loot is located. As Tuco goes for the water, Carson dies, but not bore revealing the name on the grave to Blondie.

?

　　Dressed in the uniforms of the dead soldiers, Tuco takes Blondie, near death, to a local Catholic mission run by his brother, a priest. While Blondie recovers, Tuco and his brother (Luigi Pistilli) confront each other about the mistakes each has made in life. After leaving the mission, the two, still impersonating Confederate soldiers are captured and taken to a Union prison camp. Angel Eyes has followed the trail of Bill Carson to the prison camp and is posing as a Union Sergeant.

?

　　Angel Eyes and his colleague Wallace beat and torture Tuco until he reveals the location of the cemetery. When Angel Eyes learns that only Blondie knows the name, he changes tactics. He proposes a partnership, and accompanied by five or six other killers, they leave to find the coins. Tuco escapes while being transported from the camp by train, in the process killing Wallace. At the nearest town, Tuco encounters a bounty hunter (Al Mulock) he had wounded at the beginning of the film, who seeks his revenge. As Tuco shoots the bounty hunter, Blondie, who is in the same town with Angel Eyes, recognizes the sound of Tuco&aposs gun, seeks him out, and he and Tuco resume their old partnership. Together they kill Angel Eyes&apos gunmen along the main street, but Angel Eyes himself escapes.

?

　　Tuco and Blondie stumble on a battle between the Union and the Confederates, fighting for a bridge of questionable strategic value. Since the cemetery is on the other side of the bridge, they decide to destroy it and force the soldiers go somewhere else to fight. While they are setting up the dynamite, Tuco reveals that the cemetery is called Sad Hill and Blondie reveals that the coins are buried in a grave marked by the name of Arch Stanton.

?

　　On the other side of the river Tuco deserts Blondie by horseback and finally enters the nearby graveyard.

?

　　Tuco frantically searches around the graveyard for the grave of Arch Stanton. Eventually Tuco finds it, but bore he can begin digging he&aposs held at gunpoint by Blondie, who in turn is held at gunpoint by Angel Eyes, who has finally caught up to both of them. However, Blondie reveals that Arch Stanton&aposs grave contains only a decomposing corpse.

?

　　Blondie then leads the three of them into an empty patch of land in the middle of the cemetery. He writes the name of the real grave under a stone which he places in the center.

?

　　At the conclusion of a three-way shootout, Blondie shoots Angel Eyes and Tuco finds his gun empty, having been unloaded the previous night by Blondie. Blondie then reveals that the real location of the coins is a grave marked "Unknown" right next to Arch Stanton. Tuco digs up the loot from the grave only to find himself once again staring down the barrel of Blondie&aposs gun, who now holds a noose in his hand. After placing Tuco into the noose, fastening it to a nearby tree and making Tuco stand on the unstable wooden cross of one of the graves, Blondie takes half the coins and rides away while Tuco cries for help. In a dramatic twist, Blondie turns around to shoot the rope above Tuco&aposs head, as he used to do in their times of partnership, freeing him one last time bore riding off as Tuco screams in rage.

　　意大利西部片宗師瑟吉歐.萊昂內(nèi)執(zhí)導的鏢客電影三部曲的完結(jié)篇，由克林特.伊斯特伍德、李.范.克里夫和伊萊.沃勒克分飾英文片名所指的好人、壞人和丑惡之人。三人在美國南北戰(zhàn)爭期間趁著政局混亂，打算謀奪一批屬于南方政府的財富，但每個人只知道一部分藏金的細節(jié)，必須聯(lián)合起來才可以取得全部的錢，于是三人既互相利用又勾心斗角，產(chǎn)生不少有趣的笑料和張力十足的戲劇性對峙。本片制作嚴謹，氣派十足，具有同類娛樂片所有吸引人的元素，主角的演出和顏尼歐莫利克奈的配樂均令人難忘。

　　附文：鏡頭技術(shù)分析-古龍筆下的節(jié)奏——《善惡丑》的終極決斗

?

　　影片《善惡丑》(THE GOOD,THE BAD AND THE UGLY)是意大利導演賽爾喬?萊翁內(nèi)(Sergio Leone)六零年代拍攝的"賞金三部曲"之一(另兩部是《為了幾塊錢》和《再多幾塊錢》)。許多人不認為賽爾喬?萊翁內(nèi)是大師級導演，雖然他有那部讓許多人愛煞的《美國往事》。他的《為了幾塊錢》抄黑澤明的《保鏢》(用心棒)抄的一塌糊涂，關(guān)鍵處連機位都不帶改的。以他為代表的“通心粉西部片” (Spaghetti Western)或多或少帶著貶義。

?

　　這部《善惡丑》還是給我留下了深刻印象，除了偏愛恩尼奧?莫里康第一以貫之的悠揚悅耳的音樂，從內(nèi)容上來說更加復雜，涉及了南北戰(zhàn)爭的宏闊歷史背景。人物性格也趨于豐富，特別是“丑的”這個角色極為成功。不過我在這里是嘗試對片尾的決斗場面作一次純粹的技術(shù)分析，電影學院把這叫做“拉片”(即拉膠片，沒膠片可拉，咱就在dvd機上慢進吧)。影片接近結(jié)尾處，“善”(克林特?伊斯特伍德主演)，“惡”和“丑”決斗，時間接近黃昏，地點是在一片環(huán)形墓地的中央，即一大片石子鋪就的圓形廣場?？傞L度接近5分鐘，約450尺，共80個鏡頭。

?

　　自鏡頭1 到鏡頭14，“善”先走到廣場中央，放下一顆石頭，然后走到另一端，與“惡”和“丑”成犄角之勢。其中有一些簡單的場面調(diào)度，“惡”自右向左穿過“ 善”和“丑”之間，走到頂角位置，然后“丑”向右橫移。鏡頭3 是個變焦急推，目的僅僅是對那塊石頭的強調(diào)。鏡頭8 是本段落里唯一的運動鏡頭，而且僅僅是個幅度很小的中景跟搖。到鏡頭15，是整個段落的總角度，確立三個人的位置和軸線關(guān)系，從此人和機器就都不再運動，完全依靠對節(jié)奏的掌控來推進。同時在這個鏡頭里，音樂也陡然增強，將決斗的緊張和肅殺氣氛推向高潮。

?

　　我原以為會從鏡頭上強調(diào)“善”，比如鏡頭7 和9 的仰拍，一如我們的英雄人物。但是后來發(fā)現(xiàn)導演對待這三個人物基本是(至少從表面上)冷靜而公平的，甚至還有厚此薄彼之嫌(后文提及)。比如鏡頭17、18、19 分別是三個仰拍，緊跟鏡頭20、21、22 分別是三個過肩全景，緊接著鏡頭23、24、2 分別是三個手和槍的特寫。然而到了鏡頭27，又單獨給了“善”一個仰拍。原來導演還是有態(tài)度的，只不過這種態(tài)度隱藏在一閃而過的鏡頭群里，不易發(fā)覺罷了。

?

　　從鏡頭17 到鏡頭77 這60 個鏡頭里，共給了“善”17 個鏡頭，給了 “丑”21 個鏡頭，給了“惡”22 個鏡頭，這似乎有點奇怪，作為正面英雄人物的“善”反而鏡頭數(shù)最少，含有“丑角”意味的“丑的”鏡頭數(shù)都比他多，“惡” 作為反一號，鏡頭數(shù)竟然最多!同樣著力描寫細節(jié)的手部特寫，“善”僅僅給了2 次，“丑的”給了4 次，給“惡”手部特寫竟然達到了11 次之多!

?

　　不過結(jié)合前后的劇情和演員的表演就會看出導演這樣安排的用意，“丑”和“惡”都是在同時防范兩個人，他們的眼神總是左顧右盼，他們的手指在輕微顫抖，鏡頭堆積的越多越能表現(xiàn)他們的緊張和色厲內(nèi)荏。只有“善”知道“丑”槍里是沒有子彈的，因為他預先作了手腳。他只需專心對付“惡”，因此他就是一副好整以暇的英雄風范，叼著半支雪茄，沉著中透著一絲不屑。鏡頭數(shù)量少恰恰起到了一種無處不在的“虛寫”效果，這對于我們一拍英雄題材就“高大全”的中國導演是一個很好的啟示。

?

　　全段的鏡頭節(jié)奏遵循著逐漸加快最終推向高潮的常規(guī)手法，大致可分為三個階段。開始部分除了個別強調(diào)性的鏡頭，基本在4 至6 秒之間，連續(xù)兩個遠景的鏡頭15、16 以后，剪切頻率明顯加快。不過中間還是有幾處延宕。比如鏡頭51、52“惡”連續(xù)的面部和手部特寫分別長達6 秒(合9 尺膠片)，鏡頭57“惡”手部特寫又足足給了6 秒，這種忽突還縮的節(jié)奏變化仿佛F1 方程賽車手在彎道的減速，孕育著更狂烈的風暴。

?

　　果然，從鏡頭61 到鏡頭76，被郁積的能量完全爆發(fā)出來，一連串令人眼花繚亂的如破風之竹般的快剪，而且無一例外都是局部的特寫和大特寫。短短的8 秒鐘里竟然剪出 16 個鏡頭，平均每個鏡頭僅12 格。這在屏幕上充斥著廣告和Music Video的今天也許對觀眾來說司空見慣，遙想當年恐怕還是很有視覺沖擊力的。不過與今天我們的新派武俠片強調(diào)流動感的剪接風格不同，這里每一幅畫面內(nèi)部的動作幅度都極小，靜止到近乎呆照，效果有點象古龍筆下的決斗場面，這一連串短鏡頭仿佛一連串鏗鏘有力的短句：“刀/分刀/好快的刀!”，成功的營造出了一種決戰(zhàn)前戰(zhàn)瞬間的窒息感。

?

　　幾乎與剪切頻率完全同步，景別系列也是逐漸收縮。開始部分，除了穿插其間的交待性和渲染性的全景和遠景，基本以中景和近景系列為主，到了鏡頭20、21、22 三個過肩全景鏡頭以后，就全部是近景、特寫和大特寫了，如前文提到，鏡頭61 到76，甚至連一個近景都沒有，這是一種很極端的做法。直到鏡頭77“善”開槍，才又回到中景。可見，景別本身也是有快-慢(緊-松)節(jié)奏的，特別是把它拆解為幾組序列來遞推，配合剪接速度來使用的時候，這種推波助瀾的節(jié)奏感就愈加明顯了。

?

　　最后談?wù)勔魳饭?jié)奏，恩尼奧?莫里康蒂的配樂水平毋須多言。該慢該快該強該弱都是恰到好處。值得一提的是本片斷中兩次音樂音響的使用，一次是鏡頭15 遠景在吉他的彈撥中突然加入小號，音樂陡強，到鏡頭16 遠景間音樂又戛然而止，只聽到蕭索的風聲和凄寒的鴉鳴，然后微弱的鈴聲和鼓聲才重新響起。另一次是在急管繁弦中，伴隨著鏡頭77“善”拔槍，一聲清脆的槍響，重歸寂靜。這兩處音樂的休止使音樂的“無”反襯出了音響的“有”，顯示了導演巧妙駕馭音樂和音響這兩種素材，控制聲音節(jié)奏的功力。

?

　　在我們中國的武俠片里，有著數(shù)不清的決斗場面，例如黃飛鴻vs納蘭元述、陳真vs藤田剛、曹少欽vs周淮安+邱莫言+金鑲玉+蒙古韃子，個頂個的精彩紛呈。我堅持認為，動作場面本非西片所長，同樣是著名西部片，在《正午》里的決斗，單純從視覺效果上講就很水。不過在《善惡丑》里，我看到了導演賽爾喬?萊翁內(nèi)揚長避短，寓動于靜、寓慢于快，利用純熟的鏡頭語言，巧妙的掌控節(jié)奏，仍然為我們奉獻了一出決斗的精彩好戲。
