action
Gunslinger Will Flaherty returns to his hometown after ten innocent years in prison, where he is greeted with hostility by residents and his former fiancée alike. Saloon owner Peggy is the only one who stands by him and trusts his version of events. Almost at the same time a gang arrives in the city that wants to raid the gold transport; However, she miscalculated something - the cargo has not yet arrived. In order not to jeopardize their plan, they throw some people in prison and kill others who defy their orders. Will tries his best, especially after discovering that Luke Brabham, the gang leader, is also responsible for his sentence. However, the gang sees through his plan, brutally beats him up and arrests him in a cell. Freed by a well-meaning cowboy, Will can lure the criminal into the neighboring town and wash his name there. When the carriage with the gold transport finally arrives in town, the villains find, to their surprise, a lot of deputies who, alarmed by Will, secured the gold and now eliminate the bandits.
criticism
The lexicon of international films described the film as a "corpse-filled brutality show in western garb". A decent and decent film, an example of the work of the director, who in his westerns knew how to show by his clean work and acceptable presentation why the genre was always popular, judged the local criticism of Vice . Christian Keßler explains that the unusually great tension derives from the fact that “the majority of the action takes place in a very small space (= the saloon) and there are hardly any superfluous elements”. Among the actors he praises the villain actors Fajardo and Lulli.
Remarks
The movie song The Only Girl He Loved is interpreted by July Ray . The box-office result in Italy was a below-average 103 million lire .
In some trailers and in the opening credits, the title is given in the spelling The Death Song by Laramy .
