Hey boys and girls,
I am currently writing my Bachelor-Thesis about similarities between an medieval novel (where Parzival, one of Arthur's knights, tries to find the Holy Grail) and the Dollar Trilogy with focus on Clint Eastwood's character throughout the three movies.
My question to all of you out there is this: is there any real "proof" that "A Fistful of Dollars", "For a Few Dollars More" and "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" are really a triology?
I mean of course, you can look at the characters, how they behave, what they are wearing and so on and say "yeah, that is the first part, that is the second part, etc", but...do you know what I mean? Perhaps an interview with Sergio Leone or Eastwood in which he says "yeah, these three movies form a trilogy"?
There are some websites on which you can find this information (for example Wikipedia with an own article on the Trilogy), but I guess I need something more...quotable, as it will appear in an academic paper (and Wikipedia never looks good in these )
Thank you in advance, and...oh, yeah. I wasn't really sure on where to put this, here in Entertainment and Movie Talk or better in Off-Topic. If putting it here was the wrong decision, please feel free to move.
