Welcome to the 3rd episode of our Trilogies series. We hope you enjoyed our last episode where we looked at the Toy Story trilogy (excluding 2019's Toy Story 4). On this episode, we are looking back at a influential trilogy of films. Three Spaghetti Westerns from Italy. Being die hard fans of Westerns, we just had to talk about these films. Italian filmmaker Sergio Leone certainly was a tremendous and influential filmmaker. A remarkable visual storyteller and who has influenced the likes of Quentin Tarantino and Alex Cox for example.

This episode we will be looking at Sergio Leone's Dollars Trilogy, which includes A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More and The Good, The Bad & The Ugly. These films made a star out of Clint Eastwood, whose The Man With No Name character has been a staple of the Western genre and cinema itself, and he was an actor most famous for the TV show Rawhide and B-Movies. We look at the impact the Dollars Trilogy and the Spaghetti Western genre as a whole has had on cinema and what makes these types of films so great and fun to watch. Plus we get to discuss the scores that Ennio Morricone composed for each of these films.

We hope you continue to enjoy this new Trilogies Series we're doing and we hope you enjoy this episode. Stay Tuned for more!
