What do you get when you put Sergio Leone, Clint Eastwood and Ennio Morricone together? Well, when you add inspiration supplied by Akira Kurosawa, you get the inimitable Spaghetti Western: A Fistful of Dollars. This Throwback Tuesday, we look back to the film that started the Man with No Name trilogy, threw together all the hallmarks we'd come to know and expect from this genre, and began Clint Eastwood's journey as an icon.
