Bandidos

Bandidos is a 1967 Spaghetti Western film. It marked the directorial debut of then-cinematographer Massimo Dallamano. Synopsis Renowned gunman Richard Martin is travelling on a train which is held up by Billy Kane, a former student of Martin's. Kane spares Martin, but only after shooting his hands. Years later, Martin meets an escaped convict, wrongly convicted for the train robbery. Martin trains his new student and both men seek out Billy Kane. Cast Production Bandidos was Massimo Dallamano's first film as a director. The film was produced by Solly V. Bianco, who had previously worked with Dallamano on Buffalo Bill, Hero of the Far West. The film was an Italian and Spanish co-production, between E.P.I.C. Film (Edizioni Produzioni Internazionali Cinematografic) in Rome and Hesperia Films in Madrid. The film was shot in both Italy and Spain, including near Madrid. In Lazio in Italy, Dallamano shot at the gorge in Tolfa and along the River Treja. Although Emilio Foriscot was the film's credited cinematographer, camera operator Sergio D'Offizi recalled that Dallamano lit and shot Bandidos entirely by himself.
