- *The Good, the Bad and the Ugly* has left Tubi’s free catalogue.
- It is still available on paid streaming services.
- The 1966 film has influenced filmmakers and writers.

## Summary

Tubi has removed Sergio Leone’s 1966 Western *The Good, the Bad and the Ugly* from its free streaming catalogue, and the film has also left YouTube’s free movie catalogue. The change matters to viewers seeking to watch the influential spaghetti Western without a subscription or rental fee; it remains available on paid services including Prime Video and MGM+.

The film stars Clint Eastwood and is the best-known instalment of Leone’s trilogy. Quentin Tarantino has called it “the best-directed film of all time” and “the greatest achievement in the history of cinema”; its influence includes homages in other films and inspiration for Stephen King’s *The Dark Tower* series.
