  2. It's so sad that Sergio Sollima had to die. He made three of the best Spaghetti Westerns ever. He worked with Tomas Milian three times, with Milian playing the character of "Cuchillo" twice. He also worked with Lee Van Cleef. I really wish he could have done more Westerns. He was so good at it. May we all remember Sergio. Rest in peace, Maestro an Viva Italia!
