i found this to be an underrated and quietly compelling spaghetti western (also known as dead or alive). despite modest credentials (apart from multi purpose co writer or producer albert band and the only notable crew member is composer carlo rustichelli) and the film clearly benefits from the presence of its three american stars (newcomer alex cord is an ambiguous anti hero and while veterans arthur kennedy and robert ryan lend a mythic quality to the proceedings) as well as the unusual plot (involving a crippled protagonist and an amnesty ruse covering a strategic clean up of the town and and which has the law finally siding with the gunfighter against a horde of mexican bandits). there are several tough action scenes on hand  the film is capped by a terrific climax in which the star trio is besieged inside a blazing cabin  plus a couple of outrageous moments which are something of a spaghetti western trademark represent from the middle of the street and cord sees a hidden gunman at a window reflected in a whiskey bottle while a man who helps cord escape is repeatedly immersed in a pool of oil by the villains. nicoletta machiavelli also makes a nice impression as a village girl with whom cord lodges while the supporting cast and then and is peppered with familiar (if largely anonymous) faces  all of them essentially genre fixtures. i wasn not aware of the fact that the english dubbed version of the film on mgm or ua r1 dvd was cut represent i was fooled by the wrong running time being listed on the back cover while the film was only 99 minutes long and not 118  apparently and cord character is killed in the longer italian version.
