Spaghetti Western Theatre Was a Staple of 1970's Independent Television

Spaghetti Western Theater was an eclectic but highly popular series on independent TV stations back in the 1970's. Only a decade before, American actors such as Lee Van Cleef, Clint Eastwood, Rod Taylor, and - yes, even William Shatner, spanned the Atlantic Ocean to recreate the West in countries such as Italy and Spain. The movies had little dialog, a lot of drama, and a desert induced pace that was in stark contrast to the 'cut to the chase' shoot em up's that had been made Stateside for decades. The result was a cult following that lives to this day. Eastwood became a superstar in the USA, Van Cleef a legendary figure who never could match his USA success with his European achievements.
