Bud Spencer Movies
Bud Spencer (1929–2016) was the gentle giant of Italian cinema — a big bearded man who settled every argument with one slap on the head and rarely needed a gun. With Terence Hill he made the Trinity westerns and a run of action comedies that filled cinemas across Europe in the 1970s and 1980s, and on his own he played Inspector Rizzo, "Piedone", in four films by Steno set in Naples, Hong Kong, Africa and Egypt.

Biography
Bud Spencer was born Carlo Pedersoli on October 31, 1929, in Naples. Before he was an actor he was a swimmer: the first Italian to swim the 100 metres freestyle in under a minute, and a member of the Italian team at the 1952 and 1956 Olympics. He also played water polo, studied law, worked in South America and later flew planes and helicopters.
He took his stage name from his favourite beer and from Spencer Tracy, one of his favourite actors. Off screen he was calm, curious and a little shy, which is close to the characters he played: strong men who would rather eat a plate of beans in peace than start a fight.
History
His first roles were small, among them a Roman guard in Quo Vadis (1951). The break came in 1967, when Giuseppe Colizzi cast him next to Terence Hill in Dio perdona..
. io no! The two looked made for each other — the big, slow, grumpy one and the fast, smiling one — and two more westerns by Colizzi followed.
In 1970 Lo chiamavano Trinità turned the pair into a phenomenon, and from then on they made comedies together for fifteen years, among them Altrimenti ci arrabbiamo, I due superpiedi quasi piatti, Pari e dispari, Chi trova un amico trova un tesoro and Nati con la camicia. In between, Spencer led his own films: the four Piedone films (1973–1980), Lo chiamavano Bulldozer, Uno sceriffo extraterrestre and Banana Joe. He kept acting into the 2000s and died in Rome on June 27, 2016.
Legacy & Influence
Bud Spencer is still a household name in Italy, Germany, Hungary, Romania and much of Eastern Europe, where his films are shown on television every holiday. Budapest even has a statue of him.
His films are a reminder that an action film can be kind. There is no blood, the villains end up in a pile, and the hero goes home to eat. That is why people who grew up with them now watch them again with their children.
