In the book..."Western all' Italiana"(Bruscheni/Tentori)they think of this film as extremely touching + particularly moving. I couldn't disagree more. It could have been great though, if only the charactors were stronger and the topic more developed. Visually, it's not that good either.Tonino Valeri doesn't use the possibilities in Cleef and Gemma's faces. Ok, there is a duel of the more "exotic" kind with Cleef and his opponent riding towards eachother in full horsespeed, equipped with old muzzle loaders, which they must load while riding. Very nice indeed. And classic dialogue from Cleef's mouth is always a pleasure to lend an ear....."Alright..I'll kill you anyway you want. Tomorrow morning...(dramtic pause)...at sunrise"!!!! Seen on UK videotape in awfull fullscreen titled "Gunlaw". Running some (shortened, I believe) 81 mins
