Forty years ago as a graduate student I wrote a book about
Spaghetti Westerns, called 10,000 Ways to Die. It's an embarrassing
tome: full of half-assed semiotics and other attenuated academic
nonsense. Thirty years later I wrote an entirely new book with the
same title, about the same subject, from a different perspective -
that of a working film director. What interested me was what the
filmmakers intended, how they did that shot, how the director felt
when his film was recut by the distributor, and he was creatively
and financially screwed. Now I have prepared a new edition of
10,000 Ways to Die. It reflects my changing thoughts about the
Italian Western, which I still greatly admire. It includes
corrections, additions, and new sections on films I changed my mind
about, or hadn't seen - including Lina Wertmuller's BELLE STAR -
the only Italian Western directed by a woman.
