The legendary Italian actor’s blue eyes are at least as legendary as the actor himself. Terence Hill’s blue eyes aren’t closed to everyone, however, as we can learn from Levente Király’s gripping book, The Unbeatable Couple.

Claudio Cirillo worked with the actor duo in Bündászás. The 95-year-old cinematographer recalls the scene like this:

“The first thing I want to say about my relationship with Terence Hill is that it is truly as wonderful as you can imagine. The thing is, I didn’t work on Spaghetti Western comedies like The Devil’s Right and Left Hand and the whole genre that came out after that and subsequently became box office hits. But the fact that I was new to the genre didn’t give Mr. Terence Hill the right to ask the producer and me to make a test recording, in its final form, just to test Mr. Cirillo’s skills. for it – despite the fact that he has had many successes. I’m a cameraman in a movie – to see if he can bring out the blue in his eyes correctly!”

– recalled the famous cinematographer, then continued:

“For a moment, I felt like I was on the set of Sunset Boulevard, where Gloria Swanson (American actress, Golden Globe winner – editor) was replaced by Terence Hill. I felt incredibly humiliated. Mr. Hill obviously didn’t go to the movies, otherwise he would have seen the wonderful Italian film Scent of a Woman a few years earlier, which had missed the 1974 foreign film Oscar by only six votes. In this movie, directed by Dino Risi and starring Vittorio Gassman, I am the main cinematographer, and when it comes to blue eyes, the female lead, Agostina Belli, showed off her beautiful blue eyes. After that, I marked it appropriately. After that, my relationship with the famous blue-eyed man was just professional and cold.”

The cameraman also recalled his relationship with Bud Spencer:

“My relationship with Carlo Pedersoli is very different. He is a very good friend, calm and patient. Carlo does not need a stage name, as is customary in the US, to be able to present himself as someone. : he is an athlete, champion in swimming and water polo, with an exceptional physique.He immediately had a harsh opinion of his idea of a test run! with his optimistic and trusting nature made him one of those unforgettable.The screenplay of the film always puts the blue-eyed guy in the lead role of the two, but in terms of acting, it is Carlo who is the selling point. real attraction: he’s charismatic, and he’s the individual lead of the two.”
