@Born28thMay I heard about Terence Hill that he has an American accent, maybe because of that.

@ijzerdraad93 I wish I knew. Maybe if you google it or try to find information on wikipedia you'll come across something helpful. It's all about the key words when using a search engine like google. Good luck.

@Born28thMay that is very cool, do you know why another Italian actor dubbed his voice? (don't know the name)

[Born28thMay]

@ijzerdraad93 You asked about Spencer's and Hill's ability to speak Italian. As you know they are Italian, and there is an Italian TV series called "Don Matteo". It's a crime series - first aired in 2000 and lasted for seven seasons, at least. In Finland it's still being aired and I was surprised to find Terrence Hill playing the main role of crime-fighting catholic priest, father Matteo. And his Italian is "perfetta". :)

In the Italian version, he's dubbed by the usual Pino Locchi. As to the English version: the voice, it seems his own to me; but I could not find some real information. Maybe some DVD...?

[ijzerdraad93]

Aha, now I get it. Do you know if Hill's English voice is his own in My Name Is Nobody? I didn't recognize it. It sounds different. (Most spaghettiwesterns I watch in Italian audio)

[ilvaiani]

Oh, yes, now I understand. They can speak Italian simply because they are Italian. And I think they dubbed themselves, that is in Italian, only in their late moves, as I said. As to splitting hairs, it is an English expression, but in Italian we have one which is exactly the same, which means "one cannot always be (as) perfectionist (as who wants to split hairs)".

[ijzerdraad93]

well, with dubbing-skills, I ment about their expirience of dubbing. But what did you mean by split hairs?

[ilvaiani]

You mean Spencer and Hill? Of course they can, they are still Italian. The same about Gemma. (As a matter of fact, Hill has taken an American accent). Listen to some interviews, here on Youtube: there you'll hear their voices (but maybe, if they are - and probably will be - in Italian, you won't understand a word - but one cannot always split hairs, can one?).

[ijzerdraad93]

Allright, I didn't know that, but they can speak the Italian language themselves, or is it because of their dubbing-skills?
