Directed by Sergio Leone, the low-budget A Fistful of Dollars was the first of three movies featuring Clint Eastwood as the Man with No Name. After its release in 1964, it was followed by For a Few Dollars More and The Good, the Bad & the Ugly and took Eastwood from a relatively unknown television actor to movie stardom.

The classic spaghetti western screens 7 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 27, at the Northwest Montana History Museum.
