I entered the genre from the east door...
|-
|
First of all, I was a great jidaigeki fan. Akira Kurosawa is just without words and one of my favourite films is Yojimbo with Toshiro Mifune!

So, one day when I was around 12 my father had an inspiration...
Salty Jim is a film enthusiast and great Spaghetti Western lover from Greece. His special contribution (and generally primary work in the database) is editing and filling the missing information about the three Greek "Westerns":
|-
*[[Homa vaftike kokkino, To|Blood on the Land]]
|
*[[Sfaires den gyrizoun piso, Oi|Bullets Don't Turn Back]]
'''Dad:''' You know son, there is a western themed remake of Yojimbo. It's called "A Fistful of Dollars" and was made by Sergio Leone.
*[[Agapi kai aima|Love and Blood]]
It's Italian.
 
'''Salty Jim:''' An Italian Western?
 
'''Dad:''' Sure! They are called Spaghetti Westerns!


'''Salty Jim:''' Ok... Show me!
A small special about them is maybe also in the plans...

The next day or so my father went to a video club. Asked about the film and returned with a DVD. We watched it the same night.
|-
|
'''Salty Jim:''' Wow! That was cool!
'''Dad:''' Yes, but it was the wrong film! The guy from the club has no idea. That was "For a few Dollars more". The sequel!
'''Salty Jim:''' You have to go again then!
|-
|
The next week we went together. We stood there and searched the movie in the western section, when my father said full with excitment:
|-
|
'''Dad:''' That's what we are gonna watch tonight!
'''Salty Jim:''' But that's called The good, the bad and the Ugly.
'''Dad:''' Exactly! And it's much much better!
|-
|
And so I fell in love with Sergio Leone and later with the entire genre.
The next films were A fistful of Dollars (at last), Once upon a time in the west, Duck, you sucker and then... I lost counting.
