2022-06-22 - 6:22 pm - Terence Hill receives Lifetime Achievement Award |
Terence Hill has received another lifetime achievement award in Italy. He was honoured by the non-profit association "Moige". The word stands for "Movimento Italiano Genitori", which translates roughly as "Italian Parents' Movement". Every year, the association evaluates series, shows, but also web and streaming content to see how suitable they are for children and young people and publishes these evaluations in a TV and web guide.
Now the association has decided to award Terence Hill "for his undoubted acting qualities and for the consistency between the characters he plays and the person he is. Never over the top, Terence is always discreet, respectful and decent, able to make what he expresses through his acting believable and worth watching. He is always a source of reflection for family audiences of all ages."
"Moige" released a video today thanking Terence for the award. In it, he recounts a long-ago encounter with a young mother and her two children who recently saw "They call me Trinity" at the cinema. At the time, she asked Terence to continue making such films that she could watch with her children without worry. He has complied. Terence concludes by saying that he misses Italy and will return soon.

2022-03-01 - 4:19 pm - Trailer for the remake of "Watch out, we are mad" released |
 |
As we reported last year, the Italians have made a remake of the Bud Spencer and Terence Hill classic Watch out, we're mad. Now the movie, starring Edoardo Pesce and Alessandro Roia, is ready. Today the theatical trailer was released and on 23 March it will start in Italian cinemas. Although both the music of the fire brigade choir and "Dune Buggy" can be heard in the trailer, the music for this remake is not by Guido and Maurizio De Angelis, but by Francesco Cerasi.
It is uncertain whether the film will make it to cinemas in Germany or other countries. However, since Netflix is co-producer, at least a broadcast on the streaming service is not unlikely in the near future.
And now take a look for yourself at what's on offer:

The Spencer/Hill Festival will not be able to take place in its usual form this year due to the planning uncertainty caused by the corona pandemic.

The venue will be the Urania in Berlin, an event cinema with seven cinema halls, a large gallery and a beer garden in the courtyard. In addition to the films, there will be live music, star guests and a few other surprises.
Ticket sales started today. The number of tickets is limited to 1000. A ticket for both festival days costs 79 EUR, club members pay 65 EUR.

2021-12-02 - 3:24 pm - Italy now also has a Bud Spencer stamp |
 |
On the occasion of his 92nd birthday on 31 October 2021, Bud Spencer was also honoured with his own stamp in his home country Italy. The stamp is part of the series "Le eccellenze italiane dello spettacolo" (Italian Show Business Excellence) and was issued in an edition of 300,000. It is normally available in the postal branches of Poste Italiane and can also be ordered online there - but not from abroad. For the issue date there are also limited special products around the stamp, e.g. a collector's folder (2000 copies), a plastic credit-card-sized card with the stamp on it (1500 copies), a philanthropic info sheet with a text by Bud's children (1000 copies) and postcards and envelopes with the stamp of the first day of issue.
We have taken this stamp as an opportunity to add an info page to the database about all the stamps with Bud Spencer and Terence Hill that have been published so far. There you will also find more pictures of the new Italian stamp.

2021-11-08 - 8:53 am - The soundtrack to "Watch out, we're mad" comes on CD & LP! |
 |
No other soundtrack has Bud Spencer and Terence Hill fans been waiting for as long as the one for the film Watch out, we're mad. When the film was released in 1974, there was only one single with the title song Dune Buggy and the track "Across the fields" on the B-side. After that, there was nothing until today. But this is changing now!
Beat Records, in collaboration with Cabum and Digitmovies, has announced the release of the complete soundtrack by brothers Guido and Maurizio De Angelis on CD and LP! Both versions will be released on 13 December 2021. There is no exact track list yet, but we are promised "Dune Buggy", both vocal and instrumental, "Across the fields", the firemen's choir, violin music, ballroom music, various background sounds and much more.
From 17 November it will be possible to pre-order the soundtrack. The first places to go should be the websites of Beat Records and Digitmovies. One day before the release, on 12 December, the soundtrack will be presented to the public in the presence of the De Angelis brothers at the Music Day in Rome.
