Spencer (left) and Hill in They Call Me Trinity

Terence Hill (born 1939) and Bud Spencer (1929–2016) made numerous films together.[1] They "garnered world acclaim and attracted millions to theater seats".[2] Both are Italian. Hill and Spencer's birth names are Mario Girotti and Carlo Pedersoli, respectively.

They first worked together in Hannibal (1959), but not as a duo. Most of their early films were "Spaghetti Westerns", beginning with God Forgives... I Don't! (1967), the first part of a trilogy, followed by Ace High (1968) and Boot Hill (1969). They Call Me Trinity (1970), its sequel, Trinity Is Still My Name (1971), and Troublemakers (1994), their last screen pairing, were in the same genre.
