Gunslinger Jack Beauregard (Henry Fonda) is getting old and tired of killing. He wants to retire and settle down in Europe. But there are two things, which delay his plans. First we have “The Wild Bunch”, a gang of at least 150 mobsters, which wants to bump off Jack, because he detected some fraudulent machinations around a false goldmine. Then there is young “Nobody” (“Terence Hill”), who admires Beauregard and wants to help him to get a historic departure. That means: Beauregeard has to fight “The Wild Bunch” and then being killed in a final duel with him, “Nobody".

The Gunslinger says:

Well, folx, here we have presumable the best Spag-Western-Comedy ever made. No messing around, but a successful, witty and a little bit wistful farewell to the Wild West and the Spaghetti-Western. You get all, what you expects from the genre: many close-ups, an authentic atmosphere and a classic Morricone-score. Not to forget the capable staff. Furthermore there are many nice sound-effects, i.e. when the shaving of Beauregard in the barbershop sounds exactly like the grooming of a horse outside.

Nobody is really fast. Nice scene: He thrashes an opponent without moving anything but his hands
