action
Spirito Santo is engaged by the businessman Powers, who, along with other dignitaries from the town of Springfield, feels disturbed by the arms deliveries from a masked Solitario to the Mexican Revolutionary Army. After a first attempt by Spirito Santos to identify Solitario with the help of a priest fails and almost everyone involved is killed, he gathers a group of allies: Diego d'Asburgo, the pirate Morgan, a former priest and the drifting Caccolo. Another, the Italian Garibaldino, was killed, whereupon two relatives from Sicily also arrive in Springfield.
After much brawling and shooting, Spirito Santo is able to expose the gun man: it is the sheriff of the city who is covered by Powers. Elizabeth, his alleged cousin, shoots Powers, but is also killed. Spirito Santo rides away with his wages, $ 20,000.
criticism
“The unlikely story, visibly filmed in one of the America's outskirts of Rome, moves awkwardly along the path of a well-worn genre. The low points are the disregard for religion and a long, vulgar scene in a brothel, ”wrote the Segnalazione Cinematografiche.
