[pdfangus]

here is a good site for spaghetti westerns

Lee Van Cleef is in many of them.

I was thinking that the Trinity movies were in that ilk. and at least one is listed here.

there was a genre of spaghetti westerns but the eastwood Trilogy were by far the most sucessful.

so much so that i can not quickly name the others or their stars.

many of them can esily be identifed by the horses in the movies which are decidedly European.
now I will have to dig up some.

yep they were slimmer and had a gait like a TN walker...... i remember me and my uncle jumping out of grandmaws old 64 impala on the townsquare to go see the good,bad and ugly :cowboy:

I remember my Mom dropping me and my brother off in her '67 Impala station wagon at the theater to see a "Hang 'Em High" and "The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly" double-feature. That was a long day of movie watching.

I remember my buddy and I taking my jeep with no top to the drive in theater in the summer. It was an all nighter, Hang Em High, The Good the Bad and the Ugly, A Fist Full of Dollars, and Far a Few Dollars More. The sun was coming up by the time the movies got over and there may have been a few beer cans on the ground around the jeep. It was a long night.

OK, I give up. What's a spaghetti western? Heard that term for the last 50 yrs but never knew the definition. HeII, never thought to ask until just now. :shock:

The movies were shot in Spain but directed by an Italian gentleman as I recall.

Hence, Spaghetti Western.

The music was also written by an Italian. Ennio Morricone. He also wrote this from Cinema Paradiso...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwDf2DCX_1A

One of the most beautiful songs ever written.
