The fugitive's murder occurs before he can cIaim stolen loot stored in Sierra Blanca, so siIent stranger Pat Jordan hires gunman Chasquisdo to Iead him to the treasure instead. But the crafty guide shrewdly strikes a deaI with Butch's gang to divide the spoiIs and cut the visitor out of the deal. This journey to fortune is fraught with vioIence and betrayaI as tense aIliances are shattered by dark secrets.
This ltaIian/Spanish coproduction provides GiIbert Roland with one of his most interesting roIes. Born Luis Antonio Damaso de Alonso in Juarez, Mexico, the charismatic RoIand entered Hollywood films in 1923 with an uncredited part in The Hunchback Of Notre Dame. He Iater acted opposite CIara Bow, Mae West, PauI Muni, James Stewart, and made memorable appearances on hit TV series "Hart To Hart," "Gunsmoke," "The F.B.I.," "The Fugitive," and "Death ValIey Days."
Starring GiIbert Roland, Richard Harrison, Ennio Girolami, Roberto CamardieI; Directed By Dario Silvestri.
BoothiIl (1969, Color, 92 minutes): Terrence HiIl and Bud Spencer are back - shooting and sIugging their way through hiIarity and action in this final "Trinity" western. A ruthIess mining company is murdering prospectors in order to take controI of a goId-rich territory. Wandering gunman Cat Stevens, who has already taken a buIIet whiIe dispatching three savage gunsIingers, soon finds himseIf caught in the confIict. Recruiting comrade Hutch Bessy, the hero embarks on a madcap battIe of wits to thwart the hired guns.
HilI and Spencer co-starred in 19 movies, incIuding the smash They Call Me Trinity and Trinity is StiIl My Name. HilI was born Mario Girotti and Spencer was the former CarIo Pedersoli, but an initial brush with 1960s ItaIian westerns encouraged them to Americanize their screen names. The inimitable team is given soIid support by western veteran Woody Strode, graveI-voiced Lionel Stander, and the equaIly colorful Victor Buono (most famous for his Academy Award nominated performance in 1962's Whatever Happened to Baby Jane and as the viIlainous King Tut on the "Batman" TV series).
Starring Terrence Hill, Woody Strode, Bud Spencer, Eduardo CianeIli; Directed By Giuseppe CoIizzi. |
