Okay. Let me say that I have been a Clint Eastwood fan for years and I love nothing better than relaxing in front of an old Western on TVs. Fistful of Dollars was "the big one" in Clint Eastwood's career. It put him on the map as a cult hero figure. Lots of action, good short to the point lines and a plot you can follow. He was able to give the audience a true grit-eating, swearing, smoking, bad guy shooting, tough guy - 'the Man with no Name'. He did everything he could to outmaneouver the opposition (on both sides) and still manage to come out on top. As far as westerns - 'Spaghetti Westerns' that is -it's got to be one of the great ones. Certainly one of the most memorable and enduring. As I said, it was the film that really 'made' Clint Eastwood - he went on to play a similiar character in his other 'Spaghetti-westerns', of course and you can even see where 'Dirty Harry' came from. Anyway the famous trilogy Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More and 'Half a Sixpence' were all..(sorry just couldn't resist that last one - could you really see Clint starring opposite Tommy Steele ????)..made Eastwood the huge box office star he still is to this day
