Spaghetti Western Volume 3
Il mezzogiorno di fuoco del genere (anni '68-'71)
The high noon of the genre (years ’68-’71)
Author: Matteo Mancini
Introduction by Jan Vabenicky
Matteo Mancini, has now published the third volume of the
Spaghetti Western saga. He takes the reader by the hand leading him to the
rough trails of the Spaghetti Westerns from the year 1968-1971. From the
wilderness of "Run Man Run" to the glaciers of "The Great
Silence", to the Far East of "The Stranger and the Gunfighter",
hisses, applause, laughs and clatter of horse’s hooves galloping accompany the
reading, all preceded by a thorough introduction by Jan Vabenicky where
countries east of the Iron Curtain are opened, in their own way, to the genus,
producing their own westerns. It is the encounter between two worlds, East and
West, politics and cinema, capitalism and socialism, all under the filter
offered by entertainment, which is more or less instrumental, dressed in
western spaghetti sauce is offered to the reader and the meeting of different
cultures.
