Spaghetti Western Directors, Screenwriters, Cinematographers

 Spaghetti Western Director ~ Jozef Klyk

Józef Kłyk was born in Bojszowy near Pszczyna on April 13, 1950. He is a Silesian amateur filmmaker, author of over 80 films on, among others, western and historical. On the set, he performs all possible functions, from the director, through the makeup artist, actor and set designer, to the camera operator and producer. Józef Kłyk not only films the Wild West, but also paints it.

He discovered his love of film in his teens. In 1967, as a seventeen-year-old boy, he found employment in a traveling cinema, helping a cinematographer. At the same time, he made his first film, a parody of Charlie Chaplin, then it was the turn of Harold Lloyd, Buster Keaton and other silent stars.

As a teenager, he was interested in westerns, so he made Wild West in Bojszowy. At that time, he came across literature on Silesians in Miss Maria in Texas and this is how the film "The Emigrant" was made in 1970. Then he deepened his studies on Silesian Texans, inspiring the filmmaker to make a larger production, which later turned into a trilogy. The first part is entitled "Man from Nowhere". It is the story of a Silesian, Wawrzyn Złotka, who fled to America during the partitions and lands in Texas, where he meets his compatriot. The film received the journalists' award at the Polish Film Festival in Gdynia. Józef Kłyk was honored for "reaching the roots of cinema and for outstanding artistic values".

Jozef Klyk was a director of twelve Euro-westerns: “The Stagecoach Robbery” in 1968, “The Stagecoach to Kansas” in 1969, “Towards Poland” from 1976-1978, “Deadly full” from 1977-1979), “Man Out of Nowhere - The Trail of Lawlessness” in 1980-1983, “Full Śmierci” (Full Death - The Trail of Lawlessness) in 1984 “Wolny człowiek” (Free Man) from 1988-1991, “A Free Man - The Trail of Lawlessness” from 1988-1991, “Rosary Made of Barbed Wire” from 1998-1999, “Four Sons of the Father” from  2001-2003, “Brothers” in 2006 “The War Has Not Taken Everything Away From Me” in 2009 and “Slaski Szeryf” in 2010.
