Sabata / Ehi amico … c’è Sabata, hai chiuso! (Gianfranco Parolini, 1969)

one word: MASTERPIECE!!!

I agree completely with the brief review on the db page for this. Lightweight and silly, but entertaining and fun, mostly because of the cast. Van Cleef can make anything worth watching. It’s very cartoonish, with characters like Alley Cat (the most cringe-worthy part of the movie for me) and Banjo, not to mention the Bond-like gadgets, but it’s never boring. I officially have a crush on Linda Veras [url]http://www.spaghetti-western.net/forum/index.php/topic,1086.msg26774.html#msg26774[/url], now. blush

Speaking of Linda Veras, in his “Dizionario del western all’Italiana” Marco Giusti says that in Sabata she has a sexy scene in the bathtub, but in the CDE/Eagle Italian dvd (about 99min. equivalent to 103’ at 24fps), assumed to be uncut, this sequence is missing. Is the scene included in the English language version?

No, there are only a few stills of this scene. It most likely made it never in any version.

it’s good for the oficial alternative 20 8)

Thanks, Stanton.

Undoubtedly is rather curious that one of these stills was used for an official lobby card!

Not the first one which has lobby cards or segments of scenes in the trailer which were’n used for the film.

A damn shame the scene was cut, though. :frowning:

Yeah, indeed. I love it. I didn’t like it with the first viewing and now I cannot see why. Superb stuff, could be this the best film of Parolini. I don’t have to add the soundtrack is great, every spaghetti western fan knows it! :wink:

Aha !

yes 5/5
and sartana 6/5 :wink:

well, i´ ve seen it only once, so maybe when i´ll re-watch it my opinion changes, but for now 2/5

it’s okay friend and me if you ask me what’s my opinion for the ‘ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST’ I WILL GIVE IT 0/5 so don’t worry everybody has a diferrent ratings

I think both Sabata and Once Upon a Time in the west are 5/5 :slight_smile:

yeah, sartana1968, i know about your love for Once upon a time ;D
my Sabata rating is low i admit, but i´ve seen it only once and some time ago, i think now it would be maybe higher on my list
what the hell, it must be something in it, when you love it ;D
