After Frank murders land owner Brett McBain, McBain's widow hires two killers of her own to protect her and gain revenge: a mysterious, harmonica-playing desperado and his rogue sidekick.
Using techniques previously unseen in the genre, Sergio Leone utilizes close-ups, color, and Ennio Morricone's trademark score to create a tense and somber meditation on death which is widely considered to be one of the best westerns in cinematic history.
