''Silver Saddle'' ((イタリア語:Sella d'argento); also released under the titles ''The Man in the Silver Saddle'' and ''They Died with Their Boots On''), is a 1978 Spaghetti Western. It is the third and final western directed by Lucio Fulci and one of the last spaghetti westerns to be produced by a European studio. The film was based on an original story written by screenwriter Adriano Bolzoni and directed by Fulci for the Italian studio Rizzoli Film Productions. This was also the final western film role for leading man Giuliano Gemma, whose breakout role was in the 1965 spaghetti western ''A Pistol for Ringo'', although he would continue acting in other genres for more than twenty years afterwards. Along with Gemma, the film also starred Sven Valsecchi, Ettore Manni, Gianni De Luigi, Cinzia Monreale, Licinia Lentini, Donald O'Brien, Aldo Sambrell, Philippe Hersent and Geoffrey Lewis. Although Gemma, Manri, O'Brien and Sambrell were all experienced veterans of the genre, for most of the cast this would be their first and only spaghetti western appearance. ==Cast== * Giuliano Gemma as Roy Blood — a bounty hunter who wanders the Texas frontier following the murder of his father.
