Trinity Is Still My Name | Year: 1971 Classification: Western Directed: - Enzo Barboni One of the classics of the Trinity series. One of the better Trinity movies that were made during this time period. I viewed this movie as a child and purchased the video last year. Each time I see the movie, it brings back those happy times as child when I watched those two goofs stumble their way in and out of success and failure. Probably the most humorous part of the movie was when the Mexican smuggler met Trinity and the Bambino for the first time and found out they were not as easy to knock around on as the Mormons were. Another good scene was training the Mormons how to fight. Just a good-ole Trinity movie to have around when you need a laugh. George The movie itself is great (4 stars). BUT! The quality of picture mastering on DVD is just 2 stars (out of 5) and audio even worse (0 out of 5). It looks like you're watching it on bad VHS machine.<BR>Also they squeezed some of the widescreeen scenes. Awful! Can they spell letterbox? The company which made it, Direct Source Special Products, Inc. out of Canada, has no published phone number and/or website, where I could complain. They should be held responsible for such a lousy mastering. ... By the way, the same is true for They Call Me Trinity DVD, sound OK but picture: horrible! The boys are back I remember watching several Bud Spencer/Terence Hill films in the early 1980s. This Italian comedy team always provided lots of laughs with the crazy situations each of their films put them in, and these two goofballs were in a lot of different situations, from westerns to car races to cop films. Throughout it all, the formula always stayed the same: Spencer played the taciturn giant who always found himself roped into yet another misadventure by kind hearted Hill. What followed usually involved several awesomely choreographed fistfights, slapstick comedy on a level one rarely sees, and a sappy ending where the two save some unfortunate soul who needed help. I am hoping for a DVD release of "Crimebusters," but until then I will take what I can get from these two funny actors. This means watching films like "They Call Me Trinity" and its sequel, "Trinity Is Still My Name." "They Call Me Trinity" and its subsequent sequels are clever spoofs of the popular spaghetti western genre so prevalent during the late 1960s and early 1970s. In the first film, Hill and Spencer rescued a group of Mormons from the malicious plans of a gang of land developers. The second film reunites the brothers for a similarly themed rescue mission. Trinity (Hill) and his brother Bambino (Spencer) still can't stand one another, but events once again force the two to cooperate as yet another plot aimed at the average man threatens the day. The two first come together again at their parents' house in a series of funny scenes that show how chaotic the brothers' home life must have been as children. Before they even get there, Trinity and Bambino are up to their old tricks. While crossing a desert to get to their parents' place, first Trinity and then Bambino run into a small gang of miscreants camping out behind a giant boulder. Both men manage to outfox these dense goons: Trinity through his fast gunplay and Bambino by bopping one of the guys on the head. Remember this group; they are the first of several running gags in the movie. Anyway, after staying with mom and pop for a time, the two move on together much to the entertainment of Trinity and the consternation of Bambino. They first meet a family heading west that is having difficulty with their wagon. Trinity falls for the beautiful daughter and thus leans on Bambino to help the family out. These people form yet another ongoing gag in the movie, and probably the funniest one. The gassy baby is a hoot. Naturally, a rumor goes around that Trinity and Bambino are federal agents. The brothers do nothing to counter the accusations, particularly when the head honchos of a criminal gang offer them a bribe to look the other way in a gun smuggling operation. Trinity and Bambino take the money then move to break up the plot. Well, Trinity does, but his brother hates the idea. He's all for taking the money and moving on, an idea frustrated as events pull the brothers' into a hornet's nest involving the criminals and a group Buy Trinity Is Still My Name at Amazon.com Buy posters at Allposters.com Jamster - the latest ringtones for your phone!
