Question: Are both directors of films Come Again Smith and China 9, Liberty 37 from the same country?

Hellman began his career as an editor's apprentice at ABC TV, and made his directorial debut with the horror film" Beast from Haunted Cave"( 1959), produced by Roger Corman. He would later gain critical recognition for the Westerns" The Shooting" and" Ride in the Whirlwind"( both 1966) starring Jack Nicholson, and the independent road movie" Two- Lane Blacktop"( 1971) starring James Taylor and Dennis Wilson. Monte Hellman( born July 12, 1932) is an American film director, producer, writer, and editor. His later directorial work has included the 1989 slasher film and the independent thriller" Road to Nowhere"( 2010). <SEP> He directed 76 films between 1911 and 1935. E. Mason Hopper (December 6, 1885 – January 3, 1967) was an American film director of the silent era. <SEP> " Hard Tack, Come Again No More" is an American Civil War- era parody of the song" Hard Times, Come Again No More." First called" Hard Crackers, Come Again No More!", it is a sarcastic complaint about the quality of some of the provisions provided by military contractors. The authors of the many verses of the parody are unknown, although the first version is often attributed to Josiah Fowler of the First Iowa Infantry dating to just after the Battle of Boonville, June 1861. <SEP> Liberty 37 were a four- piece band, hailing from Swansea, Wales. The band started out with the name Travis, but were forced to change it when another band with the same name became successful. After changing names from Travis Inc. and Applecore( this came too close to the Beatles' Apple Corp organisation) the band settled on Liberty 37. Travis Inc made enough of an impression during their brief incarnation to feature as" ones to watch" in Kerrang!'s Class Of 1998 feature, where they were described as" Soaring, uplifting, but still bruising- Radiohead gone hardcore." That snap assessment was a neat encapsulation of Liberty 37's strength- an ability to pile up intense layers of guitars without sacrificing melody or obliterating delicate shades of feeling. The band first demonstrated the trick on vinyl for Org Records release on their debut single-" No Beauty", a record which won them more friends and clinched their deal with Beggars Banquet. Their debut record for Beggars was the Stuffed EP, released in May 1998, which saw them" sending waves of emotion crashing against solid, abrasive guitars"( Kerrang!). A UK tour with Bullyrag saw Liberty 37 spread the word around the country for the first time. Liberty 37 were included in Rock Sound's critic's poll of the top 50 albums of 1999 for The Greatest Gift and again in 2001 for God Machine. <SEP> China 9, Liberty 37(." Love, lead and fury") is an Italian- Spanish 1978 Western film directed by Monte Hellman, starring Warren Oates, Jenny Agutter, and Fabio Testi. Noted director Sam Peckinpah has a small, rare acting role. The film was shot in locations in Spain and Italy by cinematographer Giuseppe Rotunno. Pino Donaggio composed the musical score. The film had a very sparse theatrical release in the United States, and did not play in some cities until as late as 1984. <SEP> Come Again Smith is a lost 1919 American silent comedy drama film distributed by Pathé Exchange and directed by E. Mason Hopper. It is based on a play" Come Again Smith" by John H. Blackwood.
