TMBDOS! Episode 162: “The Mercenary” (1968).
May 6th, 2019
This week Lee and Daniel continue down the dusty western trail with Sergio Corbucci's "The Mercenary" (1968). The balance of political and social themes in this Zapata spaghetti western with the out-right action and buddy comedy elements are discussed, as well as how this stands up to Leone's work. Jack Palance's naked ass, possible poly-triads, what the hosts have watched, and listener comments are also covered.
Featured Music: "Bamba Vivace", "Estasi" & "Il Mercenario (L'arena)" by Ennio Morricone.
