A PISTOL FOR RINGO 1965 (SHOUT FACOTRY/TIMELESS)

A good Spaghetti western with a different theme.

Giuliano Gemma is Ringo, a drifter who is sent in by a sheriff to infiltrate a gang of thieves and murderers who have taken over a villa during the Christmas season.

The killers have a demand that they be allowed to leave and kill one person at the villa every morning and evening until their demand is met. This is a well made western with a Christmas theme running thru the film.

Gemma does an excellent job at playing the drifter, Ringo and Lorella De Luca is stunning as Miss Ruby, the gang leaders woman who is treated like a queen by the villa owner. There are some bittersweet moments in this film, and it works well on all levels. Spaghetti western fans should be pleased.

This is available on a set of four films entitled "Movies 4 You: Spaghetti Western" which I highly recommend you pick up.
