Set in a border town torn apart by greed, pride, and revenge. Based on/a remake of Akira Kurosawa's Yojimbo.

Also infamous for the music of Ennio Morricone.

Joe

• Aim for the heart, Ramon.

• Three coffins . . . My mistake: four coffins.

• The Rojos on one side of town, the Baxters on the other, and me right in the middle.

• I don't think it's nice you laughing. You see my mule don't like people laughing. He gets the crazy idea you're laughing at him. Now if you apologize like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it...

• Sometimes the dead can be more useful than the living.

• A man's life in these parts often depends on a mere scrap of information.

Ramon Rojo

• When the man with a pistol meets the man with a Winchester, the man with a pistol is a dead man.

Don Miguel Rojo

• With a gun in his hand, nothing stands in his way.
