April 7 is Cjovani Day, which "honors a trailblazing example of Talossan subcultural development, the Cjovani Benitians, and serves as a day for Talossans to consider the potential for future subcultures in their own provinces".

While not a Cjovani myself, to my fellow Benitians who are, I hope today has been a particularlay good day for you in whatever you have been up to.

One of the hallmarks of Cjovani culture is the the viewing of Spaghetti Western films. Do any Talossans have a favorite Spaghetti Western film? If so, why?

I can't speak for the other Cjovani, but my April 7th wasn't very pleasant...was plagued by allergies all day! (And today too!)
My favorite Spaghetti western is "Once Upon a Time in the West". It's just such a beautifully done film. (Sergio Leone's best, in my opinion.)

Well I certainly hope you feel better soon!

I will admit most of my spaghetti western knowledge is second-hand -- The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly is the only "OG"-era film I've seen, the rest are more "informed by spaghetti westerns", so to speak (Tarantino, mostly). But boy howdy does Ennio Morricone know how to score a film.
