Leone wasnвЂ™t convinced about Eastwood in a first sight: he thought it was too young and good-looking, but his manners while walking embodied the character really well. This new kid on the block was a 33-year-old actor called Clint Eastwood, trying to create his own path in the 7 th art.

Sergio Leone had his first choice in the leading role at the North American star James Coburn, but his appearance fee wasnвЂ™t affordable for the filmmakers, so they propose another North American rising star, with an outstanding feature in a secondary role on the American TV show вЂRawhideвЂ™.

And at вЂњThe Good,the Bad and the UglyвЂќ, he was called вЂњBlondieвЂќ.Д®verything started at beginnings of 1964, when Sergio Leone produced the first movie of this famous trilogy, an euro-western filmed in AlmerГa (Spain), that was an Italian, Spanish ang German production. At вЂњFor a Few Dollars MoreвЂќ, his nickname was вЂњThe One-HandedвЂќ by using only the right hand for shooting. Joe at вЂњA Fistful of DollarsвЂќ, referring him as a colleague. In any case, in each film some character nicknamed him in some way. The reason to be called вЂњThe Man with No NameвЂќ is because he has not called by an especific name or surname in the three westerns that had the leading role at midвЂ™s of 60вЂ™s. No name but charmДЇor him, shoot and hit on the target was as normal as breathe, and he moved like fish on the water in the most unfavorable and violent environments, with the coldness of who has nothing to loose: not even a name. It seems like the director was worried about the character to be too handsome.Д«ut the formula was a success, and this bounty hunter of few words, mysterious, icy look and trigger-happy, is part of cinemaвЂ™s myths, especially on the western genre. It is said that Sergio Leone thought that the cigar would be good to counteract in some way Clint EastwoodвЂ™s good-looking : light eyes, blond hair, tall and athletic. The enigmatic вЂњMan with No NameвЂќ is antiheroвЂ™s living image : impenetrable face of bushy beards, hat and perpetual ponchos, and an equally eternal cigar hanging in his lips. And despite the years, the three movies main character has kept in the next generations, until our days. ItвЂ™s been years since the italian director Sergio Leone filmed the famous вЂњDollars TrilogyвЂќ: вЂњA Fistful of DollarsвЂќ (1964), вЂњFor a Few Dollars MoreвЂќ (1965) and вЂњThe Good, the Bad and the UglyвЂќ (1966).

ThatвЂ™s how the вЂњ Man with No NameвЂќ is, recurrent and cult character performed by Clint Eastwood, the guman par excellence.
