Auction History Result 3b163 HANG 'EM HIGH set of 6 Italian photobustas '68 Clint Eastwood, they hung the wrong man! Date Sold 8/14/2012 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Undated (probably 1970s) Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian Photobusta Movie Posters (pbustas; measure 18" x 26 1/4" [46 x 67 cm]) (Learn More) Hang 'em High, the classic 1968 Ted Post cowboy revenge western ("The hanging was the best show in town. But they made two mistakes. They hung the wrong man and they didn't finish the job."; "Written by Leonard Freeman & Mel Goldberg") starring Clint Eastwood, Inger Stevens, Ed Begley, Pat Hingle ("as Judge Fenton"), Alan Hale Jr., Dennis Hopper, L.Q. Jones, and Arlene Golonka. Note that this movie was Clint Eastwood's first American movie after his trilogy of Italian spaghetti westerns (and the other movie he made in Italy, "The Witches"). He returned to the U.S. and wanted Sergio Leone to direct this movie, but he had already committed to make "Once Upon a Time in the West". The producers wanted many other famous directors to direct this movie, but Eastwood insisted on Ted Post being hired (Post had directed him in many episodes of TV's "Rawhide"). At one point after filming started, one of the producers clashed with Ted Post, and Eastwood told him to leave the set and not return, or the movie would not continue filming, and the producer did as Eastwood told him! Eastwood would show this kind of loyalty to people like director Ted Post and actors he liked working with, hiring people he had worked with in the past to work with him over and over again throughout his film career.
