Viewed this once when I purchased it from Franco Cleef about 4 years ago.
Can’t remember very much except that I recall enjoying myself and thinking it is a decent picture that resembled a tv movie.
Most likely William Berger’s best Western as a leading man. “El Cisco” is awful and “Jaider’s Gang” is boring.
I do like “Sartana in the Valley of Death” but “Ringo’s Big Night” is more consistant quality wise.
When Django wasn’t born yet, Ringo was King in spaghetti western wonderland (even if he wasn’t in the movie):

WILLIAM BERGER now also has his own PAGE:

I read that review before I logged in. Good stuff (as always).
And Berger deserves his own page. What a cat!
Scherp, Berger had at least one more lead in Sartana in the Valley of Death.
I guess you’re right. Haven’t seen that film yet, but he’s top-billed. I’ll rephrase the tekst a little.
Done
Didin’t even know William Berger was an US actor after all. Did he madehe’s own english dubs?
I guess so, I read somewhere (I think on Tom Betts’s blog, second link under the text) that he dubbed Lou Castel for one of the audio tracks of A BULLET FOR THE GENERAL
That is true, and he also dubbed the Character Major Harriman in the fantastic Strike Commando, but he’s uncredited for it.
The Spanish poster in which the main character promotes the film like Lea Nanni in Sangue chiama sangue does not help… :o

In regards to the title La grande notte del Desperado, if you look carefully at the original poster released in November 1965 - just before the new wave of Ringomania resulting from the great success of 100.000 dollari per Ringo and Il ritorno di Ringo - the subsequent renaming is evident: below the white band you can distinguish DEL and …ADO.

Alberto De Martino is innocent and has nothing to do with this one, the opening sequence was directed by Castellari: Giusti explains Enzo was second unit director on Ringo’s Big Night and at the same time (at night) on De Martino’s Upperseven, l’uomo da uccidere a.k.a. The Spy with Ten Faces: it is important to rectify to make sure that the misunderstanding does not spread like wildfire! 
Anybody know how the Brazilian disc compares to the Sinister Cinema release (not in the DB)? Also, wasn’t this on that Western Unchained set ?
Does anybody have the Brazilian DVD for sale or trade? I have to add something else to this post since I asked the same question on El Cisco’s page.
I just watched this one again.
If someone could update the main page: La Grande notte di Ringo
At least some of the “filming locations” were set at:
Elios Film Studios
Anzio
Mazzano Romano
Hoyo De Manzanares
Manzanares El Real
Thanks,
Ringo’s Big Night has been updated to the new layout (3.0). Let us know if you can add anything: pictures, posters, trivia, facts, figures, links, etc…
