# My Name is Nobody (1973) Review

Great movie. From an idea of Sergio Leone, the guy from the good, bad and ugly trilogy. Terence hill is awesome. Fonda is himself. truly a great movie, in the best of the A-class spaghetti western tradition. Recommend for lovers of bud Spencer and Terence hill, but even more for lovers of Clint Eastwood and Sergio Leone and Ennio Morricone. the soundtrack is also fantastic. I found brilliant the way the director combined the lightheartedness of Hill and the stare-down gunfight angle of traditional Eastwood westerns. Also look for they called him trinity and sequel, also great movie, and those include bud Spencer. The movie is actually filmed in New Mexico, Acoma and surroundings, so the scenery is also fantastic. The original language is English, even though most of the cast is Italian, and both the Italian and English version are great. However, in the best spaghetti tradition I believe the Italian might capture some fine details better than the original. Ultimately I believe Terence Hill could have become a famous star of the caliber of Eastwood had he pursued that path instead of continuing the career as Bud Spencer's partner in crime.

2. Nobody ist der Größte (aka "A Genius, Two Friends, and an Idiot")
Starring: Terence Hill, Henry Fonda, Jean Martin
Directed By: Tonino Valerii, Sergio Leone

Expert conman Joe Thanks teams up with half-breed Bill and naive Lucy to steal $300,000 from the Indian-hating Major Cabot. Their elaborate plan is full of disguises, double-crosses, and chases, but Joe always seems to know what he’s doing.

# Nobody ist der Größte (aka "A Genius, Two Friends, and an Idiot") (1975) Review

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

Terence Hill has appeared as various characters in Spaghetti-Westerns, most of which are based on the "Trinity"-series, later fetched out into the "Nobody"- and "Lucky Luke"-characters. "Nobody" remains one of Hills most terrific (solo)-performances and it's no big surprise that this film was billed as a "Nobody"-sequel in many countries, despite Hill playing a completely different character, namely Joe Thanks, Trinity, not so much Nobody, in all but name.

Let's talk about the acting first: Robert Charlebois as Joe Thanks semi-Indian sidekick seems an odd choice, yet, somehow the Canadian chansonaire somehow manage to pull the role off. Miou-Miou is cute like a button, Raimund Harmsdorff is a force of nature and Patrick McGoohans performance makes you feel like clapping. As in any movie he had starred in, Klaus Kinski steals the best part – albeit, his 'Doc Foster' disappears, virtually blue-balled, during the first ten minutes. This would remain one of the few Kinski appearances in a comedy and Werner Herzog didn't lie when he said, that Kinski had a very good sense of humour – just, many people don't know how to appreciate it.



A word of warning here: many a great movie has been utterly destroyed by inept American dubbing: to mind come "Das Boot" or "Christiane F – Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo". "A Genius, Two Friends and an Idiot" fits into this mould, the (US)-English synchronization being completely unbearable. I personally recommend the German-dub version (I believe, Kinski speaks himself), which has the right balance between straight-faced and farce.

For fans of the Bud Spencer/Terence Hill "Trinity"-Westerns and post-Bud Spencer Westerns, "A Genius, Two Friends and an Idiot" is a must-see.
