Clint Eastwood western fades from Tubi top 10 after unexpected run

Sergio Leone’s 1966 epic The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, starring Clint Eastwood, became one of the ten most-streamed movies on Tubi in the U.S., but has since faded into the background on the free streamer. The drop offers an opening for younger viewers to rediscover a defining entry in the spaghetti Western canon.

The film is the final installment in the loosely connected "Dollars trilogy," which also includes A Fistful of Dollars and For a Few Dollars More. At the time of its release it drew backlash from some critics who dismissed the genre; Renata Adler of The New York Times called it "the most expensive, pious and repellent movie in the history of its peculiar genre." Retrospect has been kinder.
