The classic movie The Good, the Bad and the Ugly has one of the most sensational improvisations. Eli Wallach who portrays ‘the Ugly’ in a scene improvised, “When you have to shoot, shoot. Don’t talk.” This line has become one of the most iconic ones in cinema history. It captured Wallach’s character flawlessly and added perfection to the scene.
