A Union-soldier-turned-drifter and his companion—a mixed-race prostitute—are drawn into a brutal feud between Confederate Red Shirts and Mexican revolutionaries. Made to rival the success of Sergio Leone’s A Fistful of Dollars, Corbucci’s film—like Leone’s—is often viewed as a loose, unofficial reworking of Akira Kurosawa’s Yojimbo. Notorious for its violence, it was denied a UK certificate until 1993 (rated 18, later reduced to 15 in 2004). A commercial hit, Django became a cult cornerstone of the spaghetti-western genre, praised for Corbucci’s direction, Nero’s iconic performance, and Luis Bacalov’s score. The “Django” name spawned 30-plus opportunistic (mostly unofficial) follow-ups; the only official sequel with Corbucci’s involvement is Django Strikes Again (1987). Nero later cameoed in Quentin Tarantino’s homage Django Unchained (2012). Retrospectively, critics group Django with The Great Silence and The Specialists as Corbucci’s “Mud and Blood” trilogy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1474\" data-end=\"1932\"\u003ePoster design\u003cbr data-start=\"1487\" data-end=\"1490\"\u003eA striking tall tate composition: a huge close-up of Django’s eyes looms over a battlefield collage—coffin in tow—while a magenta silhouette of the gunman strides behind jagged brush-stroke kanji for 「続・荒野の用心棒」. “DJANGO” appears in Roman lettering near the lower centre, with the Towa diamond confirming domestic distribution.
