GNAWING AT THE BARS OF MY ENCLOSUREEE - Blog Posts

Guys, we need to talk about how underrated Lee Van Cleef is and all the small details I've spotted on Douglas Mortimer while watching For a Few Dollars More.

Here's before and after El Indio told him about how the final duel would work.

If you look closely, and I mean, VERY closely (around the eyes), you can see that he goes from determined to hopeless very quickly. He knew he was gonna die because there was no chance of grabbing his gun before or after the chime ended.

Imagine what was going through this head; that he had gotten so far and did so much, but he still ultimately failed his late sister.

And just the emotion is insane to me.

And these shots where he finally sees Manco with his watch is tearing me to SHREDS. I couldn't imagine the RELIEF this man felt, and I feel like Lee did that so well.

Finally, this. The way he stares like that. He's disturbed, and he keeps staring like that for a solid three seconds until he hears Manco stand right behind him.

UGHHH I'M GONNA DIE. I LOVE DOUGLAS MORTIMER('S CHARACTER) SO MUCH ☹️☹️☹️

(I just dropped to my knees and almost screamed over this. Please send help.)
