Lucky Luke

In the 60s, Clint Eastwood rose to fame starring in a series of Spaghetti Westerns as the "Man With No Name" Observing their success, a young Italian actor changed his name to Terence Hill and started cranking out his own version of the wild west. They called him "Trinity" and over time, the Trinity series acquired a cult following. Trinity was an affable, absolutely filthy (although clean shaven) drifter who wandered the Wild West with a smile on his face, fearing nothing. He WAS the fastest gun in the West. If they didn't back down after seeing his dazzling gun play, he set them up for somebody else. Trinity didn't say much, never swore, and never killed anybody. With dubbed English and hoakey fist fights, these films were absolutely stupid! Henry Fonda co-starred in one of the films. Looking a bit older, Terence has ditched the filthy clothes and changed his characters name. Even so, except for the talking horse, it's still a "Trinity" classic. This film strays from the original series in that it was filmed in the US (New Mexico) and utilizes a mostly American cast. Also, they actually spent some money on the soundtrack. Roger Miller wrote and performed the "Ballad of Lucky Luke".

A lot of fun and laughs. This film demonstrates that it IS possible to have humor without sexual innuendoes, foul language, or off color jokes. Disney could learn something here...
