She became his wife and on November 7, their first child, Jess, was born. A few years later they adopted a child, their second son, Ross. Both names, Terence points out, are from the Bible. Back to , when Terence played the part of Django in the film Django, Prepare a Coffin , the sequel of a successful film starring Franco Nero.
The other two gunmen were played by Eli Wallach and Brock Peters, and the film was directed by Colizzi. The film has an ironic vein to it, and even if there were four stars, Terence Hill and Bud Spencer were paired together for most of the the film.
Chance had it that while Terence and Bud were considering various scripts, they ran into Enzo Barboni who was making the rounds with the script for a film called My Name is Trinity or They Call Me Trinity. The film seemed strange to the various producers who passed on it saying that there were not enough dead bodies and there was too much dialog! Bud and Terence however, decided to take a chance and said immediately that they wanted to do the film.
Enzo Barboni used a pseudonym for the film, E. The film spoofed the earlier, very bloody films, by making the heroes two dirty good-for-nothings who were however expert with guns and fists. It was a huge success to the surprise of the critics who could not explain it! Even Terence was surprised by the laughs the film provoked.
He never thought he was capable of being so entertaining and funny, and making so many people laugh so much.
Even today, the film is ranked fifth on a list of the most watched films in Italy since In the same year, Terence played more serious characters, like the lawyer in The True and the False , and Django in Django Sees Red , but neither film did well at the box-office.
In Terence appeared again with Bud in a film, but this time the setting was completely different from any other film made by the pair. In this film, the main star was Terence Hill who played the title role of Blackie the Pirate. It was toward the end of that Terence decided to move with his family to the States, and after a brief stay in California, they settled in Massachusetts and made home on a ranch.
Terence was happy with the move because, as he explains, he was captivated by the nature in the United States and by the sense of freedom and independence that only that sort of natural environment can evoke. In Massachusetts, Terence adds, he felt at home in a climate that was like the Po Valley in Italy, and also because the style of life there was so European, and of course, Italy was only six hours away by plane.
On his ranch, he lived a simple and peaceful life, far from the bright lights. There he was able to recreate a small piece of the Roman countryside, planting a vegetable patch with seeds that came directly from Italy, and raising chickens and rabbits, and even having a pony for the children to play with.
He was able to spend his time taking his children to the public school they attended, reading, writing and riding horses. It was the life he had always dreamed of living. Terence says that the need for freedom and independence that he was able to accommodate shows his affinity with the fictional character of Trinity, who is in turn similar to the equally fictional character of the Easy Rider.
These films helped us travel the world from Madrid to the Amazon jungle, from Miami and Rio de Janeiro to a tropical island in the Pacific Ocean. In each of these films the formula was the same, and always successful, so much so that they were all considered box-office successes, or even to have broken the bank!
But when it becomes a question of defending the rights of the weak and defenseless, the two join forces and fists begin to fly! The plots are always relatively simple, the dialog is humorous, and the action sequences are rip-roaring! Terence says that he thinks the success of their films is due to the fact that they never used stunt-doubles, and they always worked with the best stuntmen in the business, who can be spotted in all their films.
The action sequences, specifically the fight scenes, were choreographed by the masterful action coordinator Giorgio Ubaldi who would count out a beat as they filmed the scenes to make sure the movements were synchronized, as if it were a dance, giving everything a harmony of movement. To film a single complex fight sequence, they often needed ten days of work because only a few minutes of film could be shot each day.
