Yes, Le Vent d’est by the Groupe Dziga Vertov (Jean-Luc Godard and Jean-Pierre Gorin). The last image shows Gian Maria Volonté and Anne Wiazemsky. Back to you, Toscano.

There’s an interesting piece on this and associated films set in the sertão of Northeast Brazil on here.
Is it Antonio das Mortes?

Just a guess, La Grande Guerra, 1959.

And your guess is correct, @runner
Over to you.
Oops, thanks Montero, even if it wasn’t a 100 % guess of course, I couldn’t confirm it myself.
I stick to (also for me) possibly very “difficult” screenshots but from well known SW:s
The first two words in a US title are the same as in a US title of another, IMO much much better, SW.
Correct, aldo ! Over to you.

Thanks, runner … those Colmenar Viejo rocks are always such a giveaway ! 
Something different, with a leading star of the time who takes a backseat in this all star effort.
The images came from YouTube hence the logo at the bottom left of screen - it’s not a clue.
After some research, I’d say this is Raid on Entebbe (1977), directed by Irvin Kershner. The essential clue was the first image, which shows David Opatoshu. The movie’s German title makes you think of a Spaghetti Western: … die keine Gnade kennen (“ … those who know no mercy”).

Well done, … the big star I alluded to was Charles Bronson, but the lady with the hand grenade is Mariclare Costello, who some might remember as the school teacher, ‘Miss Hunter’, from ‘The Waltons’ TV series … not a lady to be typecast!
Over to you, Companero

Two hints: The film was directed by one of the Three Great Sergios at the end of the 1950s, and one of the main actors is a close relative of two prominent Spaghetti Western directors.

I ragazzi dei Parioli … would never have gotten this without the strong clue

Yes, sorry, my mistake. I hadn’t considered that I ragazzi dei Parioli (“the boys of the Parioli” [an upper-class neighborhood in Rome]) was never released internationally. The film, directed by Sergio Corbucci, premiered in 1959 and attempts—not very successfully, it must be said—to make a biting social commentary on the lifestyle of the well-off middle and upper classes, in some ways like, for example, Federico Fellini’s La dolce vita and Francesco Maselli’s I delfini a year later, though both did it much better. One of the main roles in I ragazzi dei Parioli is played by Enio (or Ennio) Girolami, whose father was director Marino Girolami; his brother was Enzo Girolami, better known as Enzo G. Castellari, and his uncle Romolo Girolami, whose pseudonym is Romolo Guerrieri. The two images above show Girolami on the left side.
Well done, aldo! Back to you!
