Could this be, ’ Ánimas Trujano’ aka ‘The Important Man’ (1961) ?

The best hidden Fajardo in a plain sight so far. :grin:

Bravo, @aldo.
This was Mifune’s first film outside of Japan. The shooting for ‘Yojimbo’ wrapped on 16th April, 1961 (it premiered four days later!) and Mifune flew to Mexico on 22nd April to shoot ‘Ánimas Trujano’. Director Ismael Rodríguez: “We agreed that we would record his dialogue in Japanese, and that he would be dubbed afterward. Just before he arrived, I received a letter saying that Mr.Mifune had a surprise - he had learned all his lines in Spanish! Of course - and it goes without saying - with a terrible accent.” (‘The Emperor and the Wolf’, Stuart Galbraith, p.315)

Back to you.

Very interesting background history … must check it out asap. Cheers, Montero.

Now something much more mundane … early international co-production featuring an actor better known for appearing in nearly every 1960s WWII adventure film.

This should be The Man From Oklahoma with perennial German villain Karl Otto Alberty.

… or, KOA to his friends and admirers!

That is of course correct, aka, ‘Ranch of the Ruthless’ and ‘Oklahomo John’

This film features two SW lead actors in bigger supporting roles. This is not the only film they worked in together outside the SW genre.



This a tough one … could it be one of Bud Spencer and Terence Hill’s movies ? … it looks mid 1980s, possibly filmed in the far east, Philippines … which might make it one of Richard Harrison’s ninja odysseys ???

:thinking:

Well done for making this so difficult.

You’re obviously right about the timeframe. That’s a good start. :wink:

I’ll try to keep up the mystery with four more screenshots, then later will post a set that should make things a lot easier.




These should answer all questions?

No doubt an overlooked masterpiece ?

Of course it is, well done!

I wouldn’t say it’s overlooked. :rofl:
It’s obviously a trashy action dystopia set in the future (aka 1992). It can be very entertaining when you’re in the right mood. :wink:

Over to you, aldo. :slight_smile:

Now, from a director who often has Ennio Morricone as his composer, but not for this movie …



… featuring one of the most popular French movie stars



Weekend at Dunkirk has Jean-Pierre Marielle, is directed by frequent Morricone collaborator Henri Verneuil, and stars Jean-Pierre Belmondo.

Perfect answer … well done, and back to you, Hired Peon.

Jean Paul Belmondo, not Jean Pierre

:wink:

Thank you, aldo. :slight_smile:

Oops, seems like my mind was still occupied by Monsieur Marielle. Sorry Bebel. :sweat_smile:

From that embarrassment quickly on to the next film. Hint: it’s a western.

There’s also a Leone connection.



Stumped ! … the new clues just threw me further off
