The Prince Charles, one of my favourite cinemas in London, is showing the Dollars trilogy back to back in September and the best news is they will all be from 35mm prints. Tickets are ÂŁ12.50 for members / ÂŁ17.50 for non-members. One ticket gets you in to all 3 films.
Funny thing - I realised recently that the Dollars Trilogy was screened in Dublin in April this year (www.ifi.ie) by the Irish Film Institute - they did not advertise it very well!
I similar post was placed on the SW forum in 2008 by âCianâ who also missed the screening of the same movies.
Do I have to travel abroad to see a SW film screening?
Tonight on Dutch television a new 6 parts serial starts from director Koolhoven (Brimstone). The first is about spaghetti westerns. I am curious what he has to say about the movies.
