@Korano
Like the idea of your thread. I always thought that the directors (and the composers)with their actors, scriptwriters … created something like an own western world. Don’t really want to live in the world of “The Great Silence” or “Django”. 
Thank You Paco. 
Glad you understand what I was trying to do with this thread. I thought if we are going to have a spaghetti western forum, we need to discuss what is THE spaghetti west.
[quote=“Phil H, post:38, topic:1350”]Sorry Goodfella, but that kind of personal insult is not acceptable here. Whatever your disagreement with Lindberg name calling is out of order. People don’t always agree with each other here. That’s fine and no one elses business. But we draw the line at personal insults. It achieves nothing and creates an atmosphere that we don’t want.
You have mentioned in a related thread that you have decided to just not interact with Lindberg in future and I think that is a sensible solution. It’s easy and harms no one. At the end of the day, we don’t all have to be friends here but we can’t have abusive name calling.
Now I suggest everyone involved just moves on and enjoys the films. It’s what we come here for.[/quote]
I was offended by his accusations, so I spoke my mind. But I respect the site and you can rest assured that there will be no more of this business since Im going to do actually as said and ignore him 100% from this point on.
I just want to apologize one last time for taking this thread OT.(and now all this BS is officialy over on my end)

Cool. Thanks
Aftr seeing a bunch of great new films, I’ll have to add Hossein’s dark vision of the west he shows in Cemetery Without Crosses. Also like Carnimeo’s west. Very fun and goofy. Sollima’s west in Big Gundown and Face to Face are very interesting. Stegani’s west in Beyond the Law is very cool as well.
I think, in many cases you can’t really talk about a vision of the west, because most of the SW are class c-f or so. I don’t think that the directors of the many not so good SWs actually thought of a vision, they just arranged their actors and horses in the usual studio SW town and gave it a go.
[quote=“korano, post:7, topic:1350”]I mentally mytholagize the west with the spaghetii western I watch as the basis for my mytholigatization.
What I like about Leone’s west is that he can create a sprawling pictaresque vision of the “real” west and populate it with mythical, spaghetti western heroes. Similar to Shoot the Living, Pray for the Dead. Has a very “realistic” west with mythical heroes and villains. At least in my interpretation.

i tend to take the mythological approach to watching spaghettis. To me, it is all one “West”. Each spaghetti is a different town, with a different type of people, and perhaps the characters ride into a new town or run across each other every now and again. Although the movies certainly do not flow into each other, I find this to be quite enjoyable, and it allows me to get through even the worst of the worst…
i understand what korano’s asking in this topic, and i think its a very interesting question. Even if the maker of a film does not know what he’s doing in the slightest, a version of the west is still created- whether intentionally or not. Hopefully I’ll have some more to add to this topic later, have to go to “work” now … 
I suppose Not everyone does these interpretations but if you do, it can be fun. I was just think of Giulio Questi’s vision in Django, Kill. Very grotesque and horroific.
Grotesque and horrific, yes, it surely is. When I think of the part with the locked-up wife…
I like Corbucci’s west the most. Violence, mean characters, mud, a strange gothic feel and BLOOD!
