later spag western...
19 January 2021
Written and directed by italian Enzo Barboni. seems to have been filmed in Yugoslavia. clearly, some of the actors are speaking italian, and later dubbed into english. Harry Carey is in here as Holy Joe. they are pals to "Tom" (italian actor Mario Girotti aka Terence Hill. Tom's dad sent him out to the ol west to learn the ways of the cowboy. but Tom is wearing fancy clothes, uses good manners, and speaks in the polite, upper class way. so he immediately makes enemies. he sits in his bath tub, reading books. and why does one of the rough, tough cowboys carry around a little barky dog? odd choice. the script is a bit silly, some of the the action is silly. as expected in such a late western, filmed in europe. but it's all played pretty seriously. some humor here and there. moves pretty slowly, but it's entertaining enough. ps. acc to imdb, the name of the film in italian is actually "And then they called him the magnificent one", which happens to also be what he calls his new horse.
