"One of the best westerns in cinema history": where to watch Clint Eastwood's amazing film for free

Considered by critics and audiences alike as one of the best westerns ever filmed, this legendary Clint Eastwood film, directed by Sergio Leone, can now be streamed for free , which has sparked interest in rediscovering this gem of the so-called spaghetti western.

Released in 1965, it is part of the famous Dollar Trilogy , along with A Fistful of Dollars and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly . Its spectacular opening, a dialogue-free scene interrupted by the unmistakable sound of a Winchester rifle , was revolutionary for its time and is studied today as a masterclass in visual storytelling. The film also cemented Eastwood's career, as he accepted the role after seeing the impact of his previous work with Leone.

Filmed in various locations in the Community of Madrid, such as Colmenar Viejo , Hoyo de Manzanares, and Manzanares El Real, the film left a profound mark on Spain. In fact, some of its sets are still recognizable today and are included in the "Far West Territory" cultural guide. It was there that Eastwood began to shape the style that would define his legacy as an actor and, later, as a director.

With over fourteen million tickets sold in Italy alone and record-breaking box office receipts in Spain, For a Few Dollars More not only redefined the genre but also created one of cinema's most iconic opening sequences. Critic Fernando Morales called it "one of the best Westerns in the history of cinema" in 1998.

Now, those who want to enjoy this classic European Western can do so free of charge thanks to its free availability on RTVE Play , subject to prior registration. A unique opportunity to relive, or discover for the first time, the atmosphere, duels, and unforgettable music of Ennio Morricone .
