'Spaghetti Western' is actually a derogatory descriptor established by American directors astounded at the audacity of non-American directors like Leone and Karl May who thought they could do Westerns.
And then they turned out to be good.
Anyway. You won't see John Wayne in a spaghetti -- possibly because the moral compass is too non-fixed.
