Ty Hardin only made one Eurospy movie, but more importantly so did Sergio Corbucci, rated by many the next best Spaghetti Western director after Sergio Leoni. Corbucci created the legendary “Django”. This one was filmed during his peak period, after…

As others have said, there have been two types of Bond, those who were well known for having played a similar style of character before becoming Bond i.e. Moore and Brosnan, and those who were relatively unknown, i.e. everyone else. Moore and Bro…
