From the Back Cover
Almost everything you need to know in one essential guide.
They are tough. They are the fastest, coolest gunslingers of the sixties and they don't talk much.
They are the heroes of the Italian Spaghetti West and they changed the Western forever. Clint Eastwood's poncho-clad, cigar-smoking Man With No Name is the enduring symbol of the genre and his Dollars trilogy with Sergio Leone reinvented action cinema, adding a European freshness to the time-worn Western myths.
But Leone and Eastwood weren't the only hombres to saddle-up and head West, and this Pocket Essentials rounds up and reviews the best of a very wild bunch, including perennial cult classics Django, The Big Gundown, Django Kill and They Call Me Trinity.
Howard Hughes analyses the entire genre, from the mainstream offerings to more offbeat oddities, and includes notes on Ennio Morricone's fabulous groundbreaking Western scores. He also charts the Spaghetti Western careers of actors like Lee Van Cleef, Terence Hill and Klaus Kinski as they rode the trail to international stardom. As well as an introduction to the genre, 31 of the best Spaghetti Westerns as analysed in detail. There is also a comprehensive multi-media reference section.
Howard Hughes is an expert on Spaghetti Westerns, Ennio Morricone, Sixties European cinema and the Wild West. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
