In fact, Swegio Leone directed a grand total of only seven movies, of which five were westerns. His first movie was a sword and sandals historical epic Colossos of Rhodes, which was not so highly thought of, with not a hint of the greatness that would follow. Between Colossos of Rhodes and Once Upon A Time In America Leone would direct five of the most highly thought of western movies ever made, beginning with A Fistful of Dollars and ending with Duck You Sucker. Given such a limited directtorial output is it not remarkable that this dirrector would produce five amazing westerns that stand so high in public esteem to this day?
Frank Wolff ( Brett McBain ) was an American from San Francisco. NOT Italian.
