Profile of Django

The mood of Django is rough, exciting, and suspenseful. The plot centers around a mysterious character, a violence spree, and lone wolves. It is a foreign, western, and action movie. Stylistically, Django is a spaghetti western. In approach, it is serious and realistic. The setting is Mexico and South America. Django happens in the Old West and in the 19th century. The musical score is orchestral. The movie is known for being critically acclaimed. Django is especially suggested for a boys' night. Note that it includes sexual content.

Summary of Django

Though Sergio Leone created the spaghetti western with A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS, the genre was not popularized in Europe until Sergio Corbucci's DJANGO, which subsequently spawned countless illegitimate sequels. The film stars the Belgian hunk Franco Nero as Django, a mysterious gunslinger who drags a coffin behind him that contains a Gatling gun. Django soon happens upon a Mexican town where a group of Mexican revolutionaries, led by the nefarious Colonel Jackson, have overrun the town, wantonly killing its citizens. Soon, Django, who has a personal vendetta against Colonel Jackson, finds himself in league with a group of Mexican bandits who want to steal the Colonel's gold with the help of Django and his Gatling gun. Combining a stylish use of spaghetti western conventions -- among them a cruel and cartoonish bad guy as well as dramatic music that punctuates the action -- DJANGO is one of the best and most popular films the genre has ever produced.

Must watch with Italian audio and subtitles
I have never been a huge western fan, but I really enjoyed Django. You have to watch it with the Italian audio and English subtitles though. The English dubs are poorly acted and terrible, but the Italian audio is passionate and well acted. I would...
Part of the charm of watching a spaghetti western is the terrible English voice dubbing, and Django has some of the worst dubbing Ive ever heard. I love it. The film is shot very well though, and Franco Nero has at least as much screen-presence as...
