They Call me Trinity / Lo Chiamavano Trinità (1970 Enzo Barboni & scr)

Still not sure how I managed to sneak this on, but unfortunately early pairing of Terence Hill (Mario Girotti) with Bud Spencer (Carlo Pedersoli) isn't as knockabout slapstick and funny as later movies (such as - apparently - the sequel). Plot is in fact quite traditional (from Seven Samurai on) as the couple are drawn into helping peace-loving community against marauding Chinese ... I mean Mexicans, of course.

The music is a far cry from Morricone, but Also Giordani's widescreen photography is good.

Farley Granger is in it, somehow, and our DVD has helpful notes appearing randomly about such trivia.
