Hi nobody at all
(oh yeah, and Hi also to the few and far between curious reader who ever blows the dust of an entry to AWW and looks beyond the title, if such ye be. )
This is a short piece basically repeating what another reseacher put in their review of one of my all time fave films. It made me laugh, anyway.

Of course in Once Upon a Time in the West, Charles Bronson's character (that would have been the Clint character if he'd been in it) was called 'Harmonica' throughout, but never admitted to or got called by a 'proper' name.

Hiya Spiff I like this entry, it is as long as it needs to be, but no longer. But for me there is something odd about the way it is written. The credit to the other writer sits where there should be a punchline. Could you put it at the beginning, taking out the fact you laughed, or make it a footnote perhaps. The best punchlines are the footnotes; perhaps they should be worked into the main piece? It is a good entry. Tube once posted the theme to the Good the Bad and the Ugly following a song by Blondie in http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/F25868?thread=100636&latest=1 which confused the life out of me! All the best, and keep writing! Ben

Well it brought in another reader! I'm not a westerns fan but even I've heard of the man with no name (or three names). You have to wonder what he was hiding...
