MY NAME IS NOBODY [Blu-ray]

Good movie WTH no glitchs

This film has all the elements of a fine spaghetti western adventure, with a strong thread of tongue-in-cheek thrown into the mix.Henry Fonda is Jack Beauregard, a worn-out gunfighter looking to just be left alone. Into his life strides young Terence Hill, introducing himself as Nobody and promising to make Beauregard's peaceful retirement possible. Unfortunately for Jack, every action Nobody takes in that direction seems to escalate the risk Beauregard's life to even more absurd degrees, until a resentful and perplexed Jack ultimately faces an army of angry outlaws on his own.The story is clever, the dialog is simple, clean, and often very witty, and the main characters, while in a few absurd situations, are fully credible. The chemistry between aging Fonda and young Hill is memorably engaging. Most importantly, the story, with its humor, film bears up well under repeat viewing, even if you think you're not a fan of the works of Sergio Leone.Bottom line: buy an extra copy. I bought this for myself, showed it to my 80-something-year-old mom, and she "co-opted" my DVD for her own collection of favorites to share with friends.

While a couple of other films that Sergio Leone was involved with - The Good, The Bad and The Ugly and Once Upon A Time In The West - are, in my opinion not just cinematic masterpieces in the western genre, but brilliant in any genre, this film is just very, very entertaining.Clearly, screen legend Henry Fonda enjoyed his film experience on Once Upon A Time In The West so much that he elected to make another film that Leone was involved with.In the movie, Fonda plays aging gunfighter lawman / legend Jack Beauregard, who sees the rough-and-tumble west of the 1860's -1880's fading away and being replaced by a more "civilized" west of the late 1890's / turn of the century. It's not dissimilar to the same theme of the Wild Bunch and Monte Walsh - older men who see the times shifting beneath their feet.In this film, Fonda decides that it's best to make a graceful exit and take a slow boat to Europe.But Nobody - played by Terrance Hill - has other ideas. He admired Beauregard as a young boy (you could almost see young Nobody reading dime novels about his "hero") and decides that he can't just fade away - he has to go out in a blaze of glory.There are some very, very funny moments in the film - how about the the drinking and shooting skills scene in the bar where he slaps the bald gunfighter silly. Or Squirrel with the grinding teeth..??And throughout the film, Ennio Morricone provides another brilliant soundtrack. Sertiously, could this man make a bad musical score - I don't think so.Leone doesn't get any directing credits for this film - the goes to somebody else.But clearly you can see his fingerprints all over this movie. You almost get the feeling that after making The Good The Bad and The Ugly and Once Upon A Time In The West, he sat back and realized that he had created his materpieces. These were his gold medal winning performances.Now, now he could relax and make a western that was a labour of love - an entertaining project made for fun.And it certainly succeeds on that level.This is a very entertaining and fun film to watch - highly recommended. You don't even have to like westerns to love this film.

Arrived on time and undamaged. This really is a good film, classic, just really good funny and serious with some suspense. Just great.
