Remebering Raymond Bussieres



Raymond Bussières was born on November 3, 1907 in Ivry-la-Bataille, Eure, Haute-Normandie, France. Bussières began his career in cabarets and on stage. During the early 1940s, he began getting supporting roles in French films, later he began a long career playing character roles, usually played tragic blue-collar Parisians. In all he appeared in over 160 films between 1933 and 1982. Among which were two Euro-westerns: “The 4 Gunmen of the Holy Trinity” 1971 as Doctor Gordon Barrett and “The Return of Hallelujah” 1972 as Sam. Raymond wrote screenplays and produced two films before he passed away on April 29, 1982 in Paris, France at the age of 75. Today we remember Raymond Bussières on what would have been his 105th birthday.

Guess Who I Am




I’m a Spanish actress born in Madrid in 1938.

I have three sisters who are all actresses and a daughter who is an actress.

I appeared in only one Euro-western in 1966 directed by Ignacio Iquino.

Guess who I am.

Part 1: A blazing tale of a town under siege by a vicious band of sex crazed renegades... hungary for sin, Pedro`s band of thugs ravage every woman in sight. Helpless and hopeless the town cries out.

Part 2: The band of mercenaries gathers to defend the village against Pedro and his Mexican marauders, and they gather their money too.
When one of the guys carries it to the bank, he meets the sexy cashier, the bank director's daughter, and they have a go. The town folk don't like that, so he's to be hanged.
