Vera Cruz @Mirth is King
Superb film featuring beautiful scences, fine acting, clever dialogue, good action, and best of all Gary Cooper and Burt Lancaster. The main cast is excellent with many stars. A classic film and top five for any Western film fan.
Western with a Mexican setting @Juan Meyer
Great early Robert Aldrich film with a very original setting for a Western: the French Invasion of Mexico in the 1860s under the reign of Austrian Emperor Maximilian. Cooper and Lancaster get involved in a crazy scheme to transport money for the Emperor while secretly working for the Mexican rebels to overthrow the Empire. Action packed, with a nasty charismatic performance by Lancaster. A must for Western fans.
