30th Anniversary of the Infamous Network TV Prologue!
|
AUGUST 29, 2007 marks the *2nd* anniversary of Hurricane Katrina for all us down here along the Gulf Coast.
On a much, much brighter note, it's also an important date for all spaghetti western buffs. Today is the *30th* anniversary of the *only* airing (mercifully!!) of the infamous prologue to 'Fistful' before it's network TV premiere.
The prologue itself is 4:46 in length and stars Harry Dean Stanton and an obviously-waaaaaaay-too-short stunt double in place of Clint. It was shot on what looks like a budget of 10 pesos in one of my fave places in all of Mexico, Cuernavaca (the capital of the Mexican state of Morelos).
Why the need for such a prologue you ask? Very simply, network TV censorship at the time didn't allow such 'immoral' violence to air without some sort of explanation for it.
BOTTOMLINE: If you're a true fan of All Things Sergio And Clint, the prologue is a MUST SEE!! |
