Weekend events Nov 6, 2008
The Spaghetti Western Orchestra brings this work to life on stage, performing classic pieces from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, For a Few Dollars More, and Once Upon a Time in the West. Traditional instruments makes an appearance, but this fun and rowdy ensemble knows that the scores just aren't the same without the jangling spurs, punches and gunshots, so they create a complete Morricone experience using other unique "instruments.".

Professor examines Eastwood's journey Dec 27, 2007
"This is an amazing attainment for someone whose stardom occurred as an iconic figure in two genres, 'Dirty Harry' in two films and 'Man With No Name,' 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly,' 'A Fistful of Dollars' and 'For A Few Dollars more.' "From 'Make my day' to 'A Million Dollar Baby' is a remarkable journey," said Gourlie, who lives on Boston Street with his wife, Diane, and has a grown son. "One thing not always true in his earlier portrayals is that Frank Dunn, the character he played in... (Shoreline Times, CT)
Boxed-Set Bonanza Nov 25, 2007
" The Sergio Leone Anthology, MGM, eight discs, rated R, $89.98. Here are the esteemed Clint Eastwood spaghetti Westerns from the '60s ("A Fistful of Dollars," "For a Few Dollars More," "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly") in restored director's cuts, but what makes this four-movie set hot as a pistol is the inclusion of a non-Eastwood film, the lesser-known "Duck, You Sucker" (1971). It's just as much a revisionist Western as the earlier films, but more openly political. "Duck" begins with a... (San Francisco Chronicle -- Entertainment)

'Bamako' puts globalization on trial Jun 27, 2007
In some quarters of the critical establishment, a remake of For a Few Dollars More would've earned more favorable notices than Bamako, which one reviewer has illustratively deemed an "awkward, dull film" and "more a lecture than a movie." Apparently Sissako's reminder that African children will likely die in the tens of millions over the next five years should be issued from behind a podium and not in a "dull" film whose vibrant cinematography and soaring Malian pop and guns give its...

More accomplished as a director than he ever was as a movie star, Eastwood already has won two Oscars Unforgiven, best picture (1992), and Million Dollar Baby, best director (2004).

From Japanese film to the Western and back again Jan 17, 2007
I was easily drawn to the preceding films in the trilogy, "A Fistful of Dollars" and "For a Few Dollars More." Van Cleef appears only in the latter as a protagonist. In spite of this, his ease and confidence in extremely tense situations still translate effectively. (The Daily Lobo, NM)
