The first proper spaghetti Western, A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS follows a nameless drifter who plays two feuding families off each other to his own reward. As members of each family are put in the ground, the stash in his pockets gets heavier and heavier. this violent remake of akira kurosawa's joyimbo made clint eastwood a star and not before time. this is one of leone's first outings as director, who later went on to direct the masterpiece once upon a time in the west, whilst more operatice, a much different film to this, with it's more earthy and accessible style is a classic of the western genre. a must for any fan of eastwood, western ,leone or just a good film to watch on weekend or night in. enjoy!

I see you've posted this as a DVD review, but you've not mentioned the DVD. Are there any extras? If so, what are they and are they any good? If you add to this, or if you change it to be posted as a "Film Only" review, which can be done by accessing "edit review" above the review and changing the drop down menu under the "Which format are you reviewing?" question at the bottom, please let me know and I'll re-rate.

Yes, this is not a classic of american western genre since it's Italian.
