[ E] Spaghetti-wéstern Noun, singular male . A term by which a type of film or film of the genre called, or known, is called, such as the West or "cowboys", whose plot runs in the American West of the nineteenth century. It is actually a subgenre of the previous one, which receives such an appellative, shocking and hybrid, because it is filmed in the Andalusian studies of Almería, southern Spain. It takes the name of a double etymology : spaghetti by the Italian paste and weestern of Western West Anglilicism. The name arose from films directed by Italian director Sergio Leone. And it is the sum of the national origin of the director and the development of the history or genre of cinema, the American West.
