aka Il cieco. Il pistolero cieco.A blind gunman (Tony Anthony) has been double crossed. He was given the job of escorting fifty mail order brides to a mine, where their husbands to be are waiting. But his partner decided to sell them to the Mexican bandit Domingo instead. Once Blindman finds out what has happened and has dealt with his by now very ex partner, he tracks Domingo down and asks for them back, but Domingo is disinclined to do so. After all, what can a blindman do?
This is a spaghetti western version of the Japanese Zatoichi character, and once you get over the inherent daftness of a blind gunman it plays out rather well, if in a surreal and incoherent way. Watch out for a guest starring role from Ringo Starr (who is surprisingly good).
