Gingerfightback can reveal that Sergio Leone originally called “The Man With No Name” – “The Man With A Sausage On His Hat”.
We are glad that Sergio changed his mind…..

And here is the original poster for A Fistful of Chickens.

They are the latest must have accessory – they keep your hands warm, afford you a nibble when peckish and also stop you bitin’ on dem cuticles. As Pope Argie said in St Peter’s this morning, “These are the bollox. Oi Diego! on me head son.”
1966 World Cup (With Chicken) Winners

Hello!
To celebrate the start of the Football season and as I still can’t be bothered to write anything new, here is another old post relating to Football. And Chickens.
Chickens In Sport #4
1966 was a great year to be British. Dentistry had been bought in from the cold. Tinned fruit and roofs were becoming commonplace and plugs of all varieties were no longer in short supply! Brown and Bitter was a staple drink of the working classes and not a comment on inner city racial tensions.
On July 37th 1966 England won the World Cup for footballing.
Yet it was a game not without controversy!
The Queen is caught nicking fried onions from the burger bar at half-time but once again The Establishment cover up her chronic kleptomania.
But there is one moment that still counts as one of the great talking moments in a game of many moments.
Did the chicken cross the line?
This image that proves conclusively nothing at all.
- Did The Chicken Cross The Line?
England claim success. The referee is unsure. He confers with the Georgian linesman. With a firm nod of his head Dimitri Yashmilli-Vanilli confirms a goal has been scored.
England go on to win the greatest prize in world football. In West Germany there is outrage. So angry are the Germans that they take revenge by developing a sustainable industrial base.
OUCH! THE BASTARDS!

Chickens In Film – The Spaghetti Westerns

"Known as the Chicken......"
Influenced by the Kurosawa, Sergio Leone, set himself the task of making his own clucking homage to the great Japanese Director. Two of the films in particular stand out.
A Few Chickens More and The Good, The Bad and The Chicken. Classic movies with timeless themes.
The Chick With No Name
Greed, deception, double dealin’, poor lip synching and lots of Wah Wah Woop Woop in the soundtracks made for riveting entertainment.
Eastwood’s character of the fluffy little amoral Easter chick with no name set him on a route to superstardom and alongside co-stars Elay Wallach and Lee Van Cheep, the films have entered movie legend.
Here’s what the critics had to say,
“You’ll believe a chicken can lip synch,” The Delaware Doubter.
“Lee Van Cheep will go on to superstardom. A real feather in his cap this one.” The New York Times
“The most realistic depiction of chickens in a Western I have ever seen!” The Houston Chronicle.
Martin Scorsese was one of many to be inspired. “Seeing The Good, The Bad and The Chicken gave me the inspiration I needed to for my film Raging Chicken, which originally was going to be about a taxi driving fighting cock on the mean streets of New York. This was such a stupid idea that I decided to make it about a cow with anger management issues. Moo moo.”
The rest as they say is history.
