Western with a Mexican setting
4
By 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.
