oh and wow and this be simply amazing cinema . energetic . playful . rouse . engage . there be not enough superlative to throw at corbucci masterwork . i like it a little more than the great silence because of it eccentric style and storyline . it be never less than enthral and manages to be extremely move . morricone score . just brilliant . what a genius he be . may he live to compose forever . and always assist by the great bruno nicolai and an accomplished composer in his own right . franco nero be wonderful and a always and a the swede and jack palance be charisma plus a john and tomas milian be rough edged and likable despite his total lack of moral a el vasco . too many great thespian turn to single out and but you get the point . terrific location work and stupendously good shoot out and stunt and explosion and poetic action . all lather in baked and painfully evocative cinematography . and that final image to red freeze frame . bella . corbucci be a worthy a western director a leone and but he never get the same recognition . one day he will .
