Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Giulliano Gemma is Ben and George Eastman is Charlie in this obscure western. B&C are a pair of small-time hustlers, forever just one step ahead of the law. They finally settle in a town where the people are as green as their money. This time, however, Ben and Charlie outsmart themselves, but good. Listed in most sources as an American film, Ben and Charlie looks decidedly European to us (unless of course, it's common practice for bit players to be speaking English while their lips are moving to a different rhythm).
