Many exterior scenes were filmed at the Fort Bowie prepare congenital in the Province of Almería, Espana, where the desert mural and climate that characterizes office of the province have made information technology a much utilized setting for Western films, amid those A Fistful of Dollars, The Skillful, the Bad and the Ugly, Once Upon a Time in the West and subsequently 800 Bullets. The Fort Bowie set was originally built for the moving-picture show The Deserter.[iii]

In that location are two different English versions of the movie, shorter with James Coburn's own vocalization and longer with unlike vocalization actors and music. James Coburn was not involved in longer cut dubbing. Information technology also features some of the same songs from Day of Acrimony starring Lee Van Cleef.

Plot [edit]

The plot line is derivative of The Dirty Dozen, but set during the American Ceremonious War. Disgraced former United states of america colonel Pembroke (James Coburn) wants to recapture Fort Holman, which he had previously surrendered to the Amalgamated army without a shot having been fired. He has a scheme that might enable him to reach information technology with a small strength.

Pembroke arranges for the liberty of a number of men who are almost to exist executed. Eli (Bud Spencer) was a looter. The other "volunteers" are a deserter who killed two sentries, a soldier who murdered his commanding officeholder and raped his married woman, a horse thief, two other looters (1 of whom stole medicine, which acquired soldiers to die), and an Indian "bastard" who had killed a white man who sold alcohol to Apaches. The man presented every bit "the worst of the agglomeration" – a religious pacifist anarchist – declines the offer of freedom and is hanged.

Pembroke holds the motley group together past proverb he is actually subsequently a treasure of gold that is subconscious within the fort. Eli uses a stolen uniform to gain entrance. He soon realizes that in that location is no aureate, and after learns that the present commander of the fort, Major Ward (Telly Savalas), had blackmailed Pembroke into giving upward the fort by threatening his son's life. Ward then had the son killed anyway. Eli produces a paper that shows he is an officeholder sent to check the fort's security. It works, but Ward plans to execute the "security officeholder". Before he can do and then Eli triggers a massive explosion that lets the others in, and they attack the garrison. After an explosive battle only Pembroke, Eli and Ward are left standing. Pembroke kills Ward with his own sword and the two survivors leave together.

Reception [edit]

In his investigation of narrative structures in Spaghetti Western films, Fridlund discusses A Reason to Live, a Reason to Die mostly in terms of the "infiltrator" plot introduced in A Fistful of Dollars, where The Human With No Name joins a gang with subconscious agendas of his own. Eli is an burglar entering the fort and piling one false motive on top of the other to cover his truthful intentions. In fact, the same goes for Pembroke - pitting his rather involuntary companions against the Confederates with a false budgetary motive abreast the official, to re-conquer Ft Holman for the Matrimony, while his real subconscious motive is vengeance.[four]
