Spaghetti Westerns
Friday, May 23, 2008 at 09:45These three movie clips are from the classic Italian spaghetti western era. The movies were directed by Sergio Leone.
The first clip is from A Genius, Two Friends, and an Idiot (or A Genius, Two Partners and a Dupe). Terence Hill stars in this, but is not shown in the video...
And the next two are from My Name is Nobody. Henry Fonda shares the lead with Hill in this one. Fonda portrays the retired gunfighter Jack Beauregard. Hill fills in as Nobody...
This movie has one of the best soundtracks ever. You can have a listen in the Distortion section.

Good stuff, all of it. But I still think the three Leone/Eastwood ones were the cream of the crop.
My favorite of those three was actually the second one, For a Few Dollars More. Lee Van Cleef stole the show with his portrayal of a gentleman turned revengeful brother. The "watch scene" at the climax was brilliant.

Oh, I agree. But I love the soundtrack to My Name is Nobody!
