Overview

At the beginning of the 1913 Mexican Revolution, greedy bandit Juan Miranda and idealist John H. Mallory, an Irish Republican Army explosives expert on the lam from the British, fall in with a band of revolutionaries plotting to strike a national bank. When it turns out that the government has been using the bank as a hiding place for illegally detained political prisoners -- who are freed by the blast -- Miranda becomes a revolutionary hero against his will.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A sweeping spaghetti western that follows two vastly different men, one mercenary, one idealistic, as they're caught up in the Mexican Revolution and forced to confront what they actually stand for. It's operatic in scope but intimate in its examination of conscience.
