Hauntingly beautiful effect of plaintive lyric backed by a single guitar for most of the song. What a shame this wasn't used in the film...regardless of some of these posts
Stupenda pellicola, non è chissà che cosa ma comunque piacevole, c'è un anacronismo cioè uno dei soldati sta cantando la canzone popolare Denver, scritta da Randi Sparks per i Nuovi Menestrelli di Cristina, in inglese New Christy Minstrels, nel 1962. La pellicola è ambientata durante le guerre messicane del 1916. Come una canzone scritta nel 1962 è stata cantata in una pellicola del 1959 è un completo mistero, quindi stupenda e stupenda per me come valutazione è 8.
When the director yells cut everyone holding the hand car let go except for Dick York who had it fall on him and cause permanent spinal and muscle injury.
While filming the movie (1959) with Gary Cooper and Rita Hayworth, he suffered a permanent, disabling back injury. In York's own words, "Gary Cooper and I were propelling a handcar carrying several 'wounded' men down [the] railroad track. I was on the bottom stroke of this sort of teeter-totter mechanism that made the handcar run. I was just lifting the handle up as the director yelled 'cut!' and one of the 'wounded' cast members reached up and grabbed the handle. Now, instead of lifting the expected weight, I was suddenly, jarringly, lifting his entire weight off the flatbed-180 pounds or so. The muscles along the right side of my back tore. They just snapped and let loose. And that was the start of it all: the pain, the painkillers, the addiction, the lost career."
