Castellari's best film!

Aylmer

Without a doubt, this Italian-made western is right up there with ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST, El TOPO,  and THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY.  Enzo G. Castellari's best film.  Great cast and excellent slow motion shootout scenes, not to mention some truly amazing camera angles.  One of the most engaging storylines and examples of character development I've seen.  The music is great, as long as you don't mind the annoying sung narrative. Starts great and ends great, just stick around through the 20-minute dull spot in the middle of the film.  It's quite a rewarding experience overall. Have fun trying to track down a copy of this gem, I sure did (NOT)!
