My Name Is Nobody (Il mio nome č Nessuno)
"My Name is Nobody" is an excellent western that brilliantly combines action with slapstick humor. Terence Hill and Henry Fonda have a great chemistry together, and Ennio Morricone's score is marvelous as usual (I especially like the way he uses Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" to accompany the charge of the Wild Bunch.)
And as if this weren't enough, the film has a great moral to boot. To quote Henry Fonda's character: "Folks who throw dirt on you aren't always trying to hurt you. And folks who pull you out of a jam aren't always trying to help you. So when you're up to your nose in shit, keep your mouth shut!"
