Django (1966) (Single Disc Version)

spaghetti western, launched Franco Nero

mediocre film with the machine gun in the coffin and massacre in the rain and mud scene and the only memorable (and hardly original) gimmick. it stayed there, alas, as did all others. Only the Clint Eastwood films survived, mainly due to the exceptio...nal Moricone music, and to Eastwood's subsequent success. Read more Less

Pros: Scenery, fight scenes, action

Cons: None

I watched Django when I was 13. I have always loved the westerns, and the spaghetti westerns are my favorite. Along the lines of a Fistful of Dollars, Django is an excellent movie. From the opening scene with a man pulling a coffin, to the ending ...in the cemetery, it is an excellent, exciting film. Franco Nero became legendary for his role as Django. Brave and clever, he seems to outsmart Major Jackson and the Mexican army. Although the movie was released in 1966, I recently found it on DVD in 2004 and watching it today, it looks as good as it did when it was released in the theatre many years ago. If you love the Eastwood spaghetti westerns, pick up Django and add it to the list. Read more Less
