My Name Is Nobody is a 1973 comedy spaghetti western starring Terrence Hill and Henry Fonda. The music is by Ennio Morricone, which is reason enough to watch it. I saw it
on tubitv, or you can watch it via DailyMotion:
Spaghetti-Western.net says it "simply works marvelously as an allegory for a dying era an a dying genre."
AV Club calls it "The definitive spaghetti Western parody".
Rotten Tomatoes has a critics consensus score of 100%.

I'm adding this to the watch list for a day when it is cold. Not like today which is suppose to be about 75 degrees. I can see how you enjoy living with these temperatures for more of the year than we get. This film sounds good, and I love the T day snap from it. Happy T!
ReplyDeleteIt's 75 right now here with a predicted high of 78. 78! So strange. Some years it feels like it's summer with highs in the 90s one week and then fall with highs of 60 the next, so I'm enjoying this warmer fall.
DeleteWow, at first glance, I thought the beer drinker was Paul Newman! I’ll check this out on Tubi
ReplyDeleteHe does have that eye twinkle down to a fine art :)
DeleteOops, forgot to wish you a Happy T Day!
ReplyDelete...there are a lot of nobodies out there.
ReplyDeleteI wish they'd sink into nowhere land.
DeleteI found all of this series really awful, my husband used to love them!! Happy T Day, Valerie
ReplyDeleteYou do hafta like the spaghetti westerns to get anything out of the comic takes.
DeleteI never did like any kind of Westerns- but did watch Rooster Cogburn- only because Katharine Hepburn was in it;) Happy T day!
ReplyDeleteI didn't used to like westerns when I thought John Wayne was all that was. I've tried to branch out.
DeleteI like parodies. This one sounds good. Happy T-Day!
ReplyDeleteFilled with that cute side-eye lol
DeleteOhh yes anything with Henry in it!
ReplyDeleteI was surprised to see his name here, but he's perfect! (Of course)
Delete💛
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteI don't recall that movie. I'll ask hubby to look for it to stream for us.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment on my blog. I half moon pose suggestions for you. I always stay close to a wall that I can touch if needed. Looking down rather than up makes it easier to keep your balance. Focus your eyes intently on one point. The yoga word for eye focus is drishti. The studio I used to attend was named Drishti. It's closed now of course. But they've gone online at Drishti Center (https://drishticenter.com/). They offer a 15-day free trial.
Happy T-Day! Stay safe and stay well. Hugs, Eileen
Thanks for those suggestions :) Help is always appreciated :)
DeleteI've been telling people about your blog, we miss TCM. LeeAnna
ReplyDeleteOh, I do miss TCM, but we don't even have cable any more. I've grown attached to Netflix, Amazon Prime, and the various online options like Tubi.
DeleteI remember watching it back in the day. I was still living in Italy then and Terrence Hill was(is) hugely popular. I remember it was funny, but I had to watch it in Italian, which is weird to hear actors that you know being dubbed over in Italian.
ReplyDeleteI also know Terrence Hill as an innovator of gluten free flour and products. There was very little choice back then. I think he was a coeliac or someone close to him.
Happy T-Day,
Hugs,
Lisca
You had me at "still living in Italy then" and my mind just floats there on that lovely image. I wish English wasn't my only language! Terrence Hill is so much fun to watch :)
DeleteWatching it now. Can't believe I've never seen this one!
ReplyDeleteI hope you like it. I got a kick out of it even though the comedy spaghetti westerns aren't my favorite sub-genre. Sub-sub-genre? lol
DeleteI've never seen it or heard of it before, but I love parodies. If I ever catch up tonight, I will watch it. Thanks for yet another fun film for T this Tuesday, dear.
ReplyDeleteIt's light-hearted, which I need :)
DeleteA great spaghetti western! Both Terrence Hill and Henry Fonda are fabulous and the music is worth a mention too 😀. Happy T Tuesday! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteIt hit high points with music and cast, didn't it! :)
DeleteI haven't watched this movie but I am familiar with Henry Fonda. I used to watch some of his movies when I was younger. I will have to check this one out.
ReplyDeleteHappy Tea Day,
Kate
I hope you enjoy it :)
DeleteOh, they have (to German translated) re-runs all the time here...
ReplyDeleteCool!
DeleteMorricone and a good cast. Now that works!
ReplyDeleteIt works for me ;)
