The classic 1965 Spaghetti Western, “Un Dollaro Bucato”
(Blood for a Silver Dollar) was an Italian/French collaboration directed by
Giorgio Ferroni in which ex-Confederate lieutenant Gary O’Hara is duped by a
corrupt landowner and mistakenly kills his brother. Gary is also shot and left
for dead but is saved by the silver dollar he carries in his pocket, enabling
him to return and avenge his brother’s death. The film’s release in America saw
the title changed to “One Silver Dollar” and its star’s name changed from
Guiliano Gemma to the rather less Italian sounding Montgomery Wood, under which
moniker Gemma continued to perform.
Ferrio’s music for “Un Dollaro Bucato” has all the
galloping excitement and standoff tension of Morricone’s soundtracks for Sergio
Leone’s classic Dollars Trilogy and was used by Tarantino in his 2009 film
“Inglourious Basterds”.
