A Genius, Two Partners and a Dupe (AKA Nobody's the Greatest)
Dir: Sergio Leone, Damiano Damiani
1975
**
A Genius, Two Partners and a Dupe is no where near as great as My Name is Nobody but then it's not quite a sequel either. Terence Hill is still brilliant as Nobody (or is it Joe Thanks?) and there are great supporting performances from Robert Charlebois, Patrick McGoohan and Klaus Kinski that certainly make this, 

Sergio Leone's last Western (sort of) well worth catching up with (that is if you can track it down, I took me a while). The Western/Spaghetti Western really was in decline at this point and even a light hearted spoof of sorts didn't have the desired impact or change in direction.
