Companeros
Corbucci's COMPAĆEROS eschews the grim pessimism of his early DJANGO and THE GREAT SILENCE in favor of a more fun, freewheeling take on the Mexican revolution, with a wry sense of anarchic humor and leftist politics that call to mind Leone's DUCK, YOU SUCKER!/FISTFUL OF DYNAMITE.DJANGO's Franco Nero and Spgahetti Western mainstay Thomas Milian are a suave arms dealer and a village idiot, respectively, who come together reluctantly first in order to survive, then in the name of the revolution to rescue an intellectual political prisoner (Fernando Rey). Their main obstacles along the way are an uncomfortable disdain for one another, shared affection for a beautiful local revolutionary (Iris Berben), and the malicious efforts of malevolent, wooden handed John (Jack Palance), who perches a falcon on one hand and an omnipresent joint between his lips. It's all set to one of Morricone's best and most underrated scores.
