Hill would go on to direct and star in an adaption of the overall comic, so this may be no accident. It's really close to the story "The Tenderfoot" from the Lucky Luke comic. Every once in a while, they'd make solo films, which this one being a good example.
These movies follow a pretty simple formula of Hill and Bud Spencer as a comedy duo. Barboni had tremendous success parodying the Italian western genre, starting with They Call Me Trinity and then following that with the even bigger Trinity Is STILL My Name!
Man of the East is a vehicle for Terence Hill, directed by Enzo Barboni and written by E.B. Reviewed by BandSAboutMovies 5 / 10 Lots of fun It sneaks up on you, like the best kind of sleeper. The general handling is so amiable that viewers may become absorbed by the movie without even realizing it. The film isn't much, but the English-dubbing is good and the Yugoslavian locations give it a curious and unusual look. A ready-made romance is provided for our hero with a literature-minded lass into Byron (her baby-blue eyes match up well with Hill's, although his dimply prettiness is tough to beat). Writer-director Enzo Barboni knows just how to utilize Hill's starry-eyed charm, and the actor is very funny exercising in the morning in front of the gunslingers or riding his bicycle down tumbleweed streets. Terence Hill is the jolly Britisher who arrives in Old West Arizona upon his dying father's wish that he become a cowboy.
