This week we begin a brand new film “A Pistol for Ringo”
starring Montgomery Wood (Giuliano Gemma). Most of this was filmed in Almeria
and several of the locations were used in many of the Euro-westerns filmed in
that area.
In the opening scene of “A Pistol for Ringo” a group of
gunmen are seen arriving at a water wheel where the village women are washing
their clothes. This water wheel and culvert are still present and have been
reconstructed as an historical location. The water wheel is in the village of
El Pozo de los Frailes on the main road AL-3108 between Almeria and San Jose.

Western locations please visit my friend Yoshi ‘Garringo’ Yasuda’s excellent
