Interesting cinematography, chemistry between the trio, autumn muddy atmosphere, comedy element, nice soundtrack. I can break it down scene by scene: I particularly like opening scene, then Hilton’s gravedigging with a surprise, big gunfight near the end, epic dining turkey scene, which doesn’t make much sense 
, and also the anticlimactic finale after bankroberry: Hilton catches up with other two, they grab the pistols, but no, no shootout this time, but nice score accompanying it. There are probably more, but I didn’t watch whole movie and skipped through it (I wanted, but after five years or so I decided to revisited it I found only the same low-quality vhs version, so I didnt bother).
ehm…
ehm…
ehm, ehm…
Maybe this is why you liked it so much.
But at least we seem to agree Squadra volante is a nice poliziotteschi.
Still haven’t seen it, maybe tomorrow. Zebraman by miike is on the program and Shadows of Sodoma.
Give it a shot defo, a pretty cool film with a killer soundtrack by Cipriani.
ehm, ehm… yikes…

This is another relatively obscure western which is free to subscribers on UK Amazon Prime. Prime has a reasonable English widescreen print titled Dead for a Dollar running 95m (although Prime search title is Trusting is Good…Killing Is Better). Certainly much better than the You Tube print and an awful Pal pan & scanned bootleg I had. John Ireland does not speak in his own voice in the English print. Will report later when I have finished it. The Italian censor database clocks this at 106m but I dunno if it was ever released at that length.

I think this one’s pretty enjoyable tbh. Not too bad.
I have the German version as 35mm print and it includes some nudity in hotel room scene I haven’t seen in international versions
The nudity is also present in the UK Amazon Prime version. Several shots of topless woman (on credits as ‘hotel room girl’) on bed with Hilton including one of Hilton kissing or licking a breast and later brief shots of her exposed breast when she is standing up holding a sheet watching the fight.
The Italian censor asked for about 1.6m (3s) of this to be cut for an unrestricted rating but there are quite a few shots of her breasts - more than implied by the censor report - and therefore it seems we have an uncut print, at least in visuals.

Ah interesting. Seems to be exactly the same as in German version. In YT sequences are cut…also in the old Fullscreen version.
Yes. You Tube version (pan/scanned and poor quality unlike Amazon Print which is better quality and OAR) has been cut by about 30s-45s to remove the entire sex scene, including nudity, on the bed and the other brief topless shots during the fight have been scanned out of frame. This ran 91m35s - possibly a Pal copy or maybe a more cut copy.
