This film’s star went on to appear in a Leone film five years later.

Haha, thank you aldo, indeed it’s Red Sundown and Rory Calhoun. Here’s a double whammy of pensive Rory in a lengthy superimposed flashback sequence.
Back to you!

Now an actress who enjoyed the sweet life, and a director who’s biggest hit could be described as blind luck?

Ok, time to ring the bell on this … I thought the clues would make it a giveaway, Sweet life, ‘La Dolce Vita’, Anita Ekberg and the director is Amando de Ossorio of the ‘Blind Dead’ quartet.
‘Fangs of the Living Dead’ aka ‘Malenka’ (1969)
The floor is open for anyone wanting to offer us a challenge.

Going with a wild ( wrong ) guess - ‘The Pride and the Passion’ ?

Good guess, right location, but this is set about twenty years after the Peninsular War, and is based on a historical character, though probably more legend than fact…

Is it ’ Llanto por un bandido’ ? … we may have had this one before

Yes that’s the one, @aldo - I’ve talked about it before on here.
It’s a handsomely filmed adventure/drama with lots of familiar faces. The DVDs are somewhat washed out looking but there is a nice Spanish TV rip.
Your turn again.

That’s the one … directed by Carlo Lizzani in 1974 … starring Peter Boyle in the title role.
Over to you.
Escape to Athena ?
Absolutely. Back to you
Thank you,
Here’s one that got much attention at the time of release, but seems to have reseeded in the memory, possibly because of it’s underlying domestic nastiness. It’s not gory or sensational, just unpleasant to watch.
