One of my all time favorite characters and Wallach's performance is also among my favorites.

I can´t decide between these two. Screen stealers, and I love the interaccion between them.

Tuco
Eli Wallach gives one of my favorite performances of all time.

Tuco is the star. I heard this annoyed Eastwood but if you look at the Leone films they follow a certain pattern.
In FOD Eastwood is the main character but he's mysterious and it's the Mexican family he helps that is the focal point.
In FAFDM while it may seem like he and Van Cleef are the main character, in fact it is Indio who has the most development-and despite being a killer and a rapist, he has a loyal friend and we are shown his mind to suggest he is haunted by the incident that ties him to Colonel Mortimer (who incidentally, shows almost no emotional response until the picture is brought up).
In TGTBATU Tuco is the main character.
In OUATITW it's more of an ensemble though the Eastwood-Van Cleef character is Frank more so than Harmonica or Cheyenne (a half-breed?). I think Harmonica is supposed to be Mexican as well. Jill might be the central character in the end.
Duck You Sucker (what a horrible name) the Mexican rapist is the central character.
In OUATIA the focus is urban Jewish gangsters.
Leone was drifting away from the "Eastwood type" right from the beginning.
