I saw this movie at the Italian cinemas in Toronto and later taped it off TV in 1978. I posted it on my Y/T channel for all to see. If you like Spaghetti Westerns you will like this one. Lots of action, torture and gunplay. Gordon Mitchell sent me a letter 9 I posted it in the photo section of IMDB), and said "this film was started in 1969 but kept running out of money, so it kept getting pushed back until 1971". I gave it a high star rating because of the rarity. Check it out.

Its narratives often weave together politics, contemporary social change, class consciousness, and family dynamics, balancing artistic ambition with entertainment that resonated widely.
