Re: Spaghetti Westerns
I can only recommend that you go out and get Seven Samurai. This is probably one of the greatest movies ever made. It could be said that this is the movie that sparked the whole Spaghetti Western thing. The Magnificent Seven, is the American remake of it.
Akira Kurosawa (Seven Samurai's director) heavily influenced Sam Peckinpah and Sergio Leone.
Two weeks ago I watched it with the Commentary, which is done by Michael Jeck. That added so much more insight into the movie that I love it even more now!
Plus, it is the #2 in The Criterion Collection. If you have not yet seen this movie, you should run out and get it now!
