3395DVD

original Italian title UNA LUNGA FILA DI CROCI [A Long Row of Crosses]
also known as NOOSE FOR DJANGO and A HANGING FOR DJANGO

directed by Sergio Garrone (as Willy S Regan)
starring: Anthony Steffen · William Berger · Nicoletta Machiavelli · Mario Brega · Maria Angela Giordano

Here is an enjoyable film about the delicate partnership between two bounty hunters, the stoic Brandon [called Django in some versions] and bible-thumping preacher Everett Murdoch, as they are attracted to the Fargo Ranch because Mr Fargo is known to hire 'wanted ' bandits. But the two uncover (and try to stop) a slave-trafficking ring run by Fargo himself.

Sergio Garrone made this movie immediately after NO GRAVES ON BOOT HILL and just before DJANGO THE BASTARD. His relationship with chief cinematographer Sandro Mancori is legendary and has resulted in MANY popular genre films. But unfortunately Mancori was not available for this shoot. He was already involved in an over-deadline Gianfranco Parolini project SABATA. As a result, [the normally competent] Franco Villa was brought in for primary photography. But Garrone was very unhappy with Villa's work. He hired Aristide Massaccesi [the future Joe D'Amato] to act as "chief camera operator" with orders to secretly reshoot many scenes.
