The Crazy Westerners
"A gun-woman. Her creed. Between outlaws, songs and love..."
Little Rita has a dream: she dreams of a better world and she believes that all the evil in the world originates from gold. So she has decided to blow up all the gold she can put her hands on. In her mission she is assisted by the Indian Chief Bisonte Seduto and by her friend Francis. Little Rita kills Ringo and Django, but she is taken prisoner by the Mexican bandit Sancho who wants to steal her gold. Black Star rescues her and seems determined to help her, but does he?
Curator's Take
“A niche Chinese/Italian co-production? No, actually just a comedy with a misleading title in some markets. It’s a standard farce that hasn’t traveled well through time.”
Why This Movie Is Important
A title that reflects the chaotic, anything-goes energy of the late period. It suggests a film that is barely holding itself together, relying on slapstick and madness to entertain.
