I saw this film after reading the good review by Coventry n I am happy to c this film.
I admire Coventry's knowledge of films especially the obscure ones.
Avoid reading the plot summary as it is rightly advised by Coventry too.
The plot synopsis on IMDb n Wiki gives away major stuff about the film. It gives away major spoilers. I heeded Coventry's advice n I enjoyed this film tremendously.
This film marked the directorial debut of cinematographer Massimo Dallamano (he did the cinematography for For a Few Dollars..... n Fistful of ....)
No wonder the cinematography is top notch in this film. The scene at around 44th min, the place where the horse carriage is shown below the tree next to the river looked straight outta poetry and very picturesque.
The film is about three characters:
Billy Kane, a dreaded robber who is very sharp at shooting, in fact the first shoot out where he shoots a train traveller, Richard Martin, confirms that Kane is truly a mean n dreaded killer.
After the shootout, Martin, now a handicap n without his thin moustache, recruits a wanted convict, Ricky Shot.
Together they organise shooting amusement shows for public earning money but both have agendas of their own.
The film has ample amount of tension, suspense n action.
The direction n acting is first class.
Highly recommend to fans of the Spaghetti Westerns.
