The Cortijo Del Fraile rehabilitation project, seen in The Good The Bad and The ugly, includes the construction of a cycle path through multiple filming locations. Let's review all these locations. The track starts from Los Albaricoques and goes to Rodalquilar.

Clint wasn't very keen on going to shoot an Italian Western in Spain, it was Maggie who insisted "go ahead, it might be interesting".

For Leone it happens like this: he has on average more than 4 hours of edited film that he presents to the producers, of course each time they want him to cut 1 hour or 2. Here for FFDM he cuts the scenes of women, which tend to slow down the plot, according to him. Yeah, yeah, there are no women!
