Kurzbeschreibung

In einer von Korruption durchzogenen Westernlandschaft wirbelt ein geheimnisvoller Mundharmonikaspieler (Charles Bronson) ordentlich Staub auf, als er das Territorium des Killers Frank (Henry Fonda) betritt.

Währenddessen trauert Jill (Claudia Cardinale) ihrem ermordeten Mann nach und kämpft mit einem skrupellosen Eisenbahnunternehmen um das von ihm hinterlassene Land.

Filmzitate

Cheyenne: By the way, you know anything about a man going around playing the harmonica? He's somebody you'd remember. Instead of talking, he plays. And when he better play, he talks.

Frank: How can you trust a man that wears both a belt and suspenders? Man can't even trust his own pants.

Morton: Tell me, was it necessary that you kill all of them? I only told you to scare them!

Frank: People scare better when they're dyin'.

[Three men await Harmonica on the train station]

Harmonica: Did you bring a horse for me?

Snaky: Well... looks like we're... looks like we're shy one horse.

Harmonica: [shaking his head] You brought two too many.
