Great actor. Loved him as Tuco in The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. There is an interview online where he talks about improvising the "gun shop" scene where Tuco assembles a gun from the best parts of those available - never having known much about firearms. He was surprised but pleased that many fans of the movie thought of that scene as authentic.
"When you have to shoot, shoot, don't talk." He also was good in his part in Godfather III - which despite not rising to the level of Godfather I and II still had a lot of good moments. Rest in peace. They don't make many actors like him anymore.

Ah yes, Music. Very good for the digestion !
"what was it you said ? oh, yes, if you save your breath, a man like you could manage it."
should have won an oscar for Tuco, "it doesn't matter, I'll kill them all." was also cool in the flick Tough Guys. Kirk Burt and Eli act up a storm in that one

What, no mention of him as the bandito chieftain, Calvera, in the Magnificent Seven? I loved him in that role. The movie was a whole collection of "macho men" of the sixties. Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, James Coburn. The latter three would get back together in another good movie, "The Great Escape," three years later.
