The gold prospectors living there are deprived of their wages by a gang led by Sheriff Fred. In fact, Pepito can discover a new supply of gold, which he celebrates in the saloon in the evening. Against the advice of the saloon girl Susana, who is in love with him, he lets Fred persuade him to play roulette, which Fred has manipulated. He wins and becomes the richest man in town.
Pepito writes about his success to Carmen, who then actually arrives in Golden City, accompanied by Fred and his men. Little does he know that Carmen has made a deal with Fred and wants to rob him. It wasn't until his wedding day that he discovered the plot. He succeeds in disarming Fred's men with a trick and then winning the fight with Fred. Carmen also gets her sentence; Pepito marries Susana.
criticism
“This western parody succeeds its intention quite well, at least until it gets sweet and except for the endless final duel. Occasionally the action is hindered by slow pace. But the great Lauretta Masiero, who is in no way inferior to Betty Hutton, comforts the whole thing ”, wrote Alberto Albertazzi in 1953.
