Man of the East (Italian: E poi lo chiamarono il magnifico) is a 1972 Italian Spaghetti Western film directed by E.B. Clutcher starring Terence Hill.
The film is set in the Wild West during the time of the railway construction. A recurring theme is the always progressing modernisation which some of the protagonists are trying to escape. The original title E poi lo chiamarono il Magnifico (translatable as And then they called him the Magnificent One) was chosen to capitalize on the success of the two previous movies by E.B. Clutcher, both starring Terrence Hill, They Call Me Trinity and Trinity Is Still My Name, even if in this movies there are different characters and Bud Spencer, historic sidekick of Terrence Hill/Trinity, is not featured.
