One of the first faces to come to mind when you think of the phrase "[[TheWestern western]] villain", Clarence Leroy Van Cleef (January 9, 1925 – December 16, 1989) began acting in theater, playing small off-Broadway roles until he was cast in a touring company of ''Literature/MisterRoberts''. From there, Van Cleef started out in film as one of the villain's henchmen in ''Film/HighNoon'' (a bit part he apparently got because the director thought he had an evil-looking face) and went on playing {{mook}}s in various westerns and films noirs during the 1950s. Then his career gradually fizzled out, partly because he'd injured his leg badly in a car accident but likely also because he had a drinking problem. In the mid-60s, Creator/SergioLeone resurrected Van Cleef's career by giving him major supporting roles in ''Film/ForAFewDollarsMore'' and ''Film/TheGoodTheBadAndTheUgly'', which brought him to stardom in Europe. He continued to star in [[SpaghettiWestern spaghetti westerns]] for much of his subsequent career.
Van Cleef reportedly claimed to be [[QuickDraw faster on the draw]] than Creator/ClintEastwood in real life. A sequence at the climax of ''Film/ForAFewDollarsMore'' shows him drawing, cocking and firing a gun in three frames of footage, which translates to roughly one-eighth of a second. He's also one of relatively few actors to appear in more than one movie on ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' (he was in both ''Film/ItConqueredTheWorld'' and ''Series/MasterNinja'', the two 'movies' both being riffed on). He was [[RedRightHand missing the tip of his middle finger on his right hand]], as a result of an attempt to make a playhouse for one of his daughters.
Of course, while he's most known for playing the main antagonist of ''The Good, the Bad And the Ugly'', he's also played heroic (or at least sympathetic) characters on more than a few occasions, including ''For a Few Dollars More'' and most of the other spaghetti westerns he appeared in.

From there, Van Cleef started out in film as one of the villain's henchmen in ''HighNoon'' (a bit part he apparently got because the director thought he had an evil-looking face) and went on playing {{mook}}s in various westerns and films noirs during the 1950s. Then his career gradually fizzled out, partly because he'd injured his leg badly in a car accident but likely also because he had a drinking problem. In the mid-60s, Creator/SergioLeone resurrected Van Cleef's career by giving him major supporting roles in ''Film/ForAFewDollarsMore'' and ''Film/TheGoodTheBadAndTheUgly'', which brought him to stardom in Europe. He continued to star in [[SpaghettiWestern spaghetti westerns]] for much of his subsequent career.
