Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | A sub-genre of the Western films, so called because they were produced by Italian studios. These movies were typically shot in Spain, since the Tabernas Desert looks similar to Hollywood's idea of the old west. Since Spanish extras were readily available, Spaghetti Westerns often featured "Mexican" characters and themes, often focusing on the Mexican Revolution, border problems, or Mexican banditos. There was a whole sub-genre dedicated to politically-oriented westerns about the Mexican Revolution called the Zapata Western. |
