60-TALETS TVÅ STÖRSTA SEXSYMBOLER I EN AV DE STORA WESTERN-SUCCÉERNA<br/><br/>Aldrig förr har ett så märkligt följe skådats i västern. Klädda som om de skulle på cocktailparty färdas en grupp aristokrater genom vildmarken, uppassade av en butler med champagne och gåsleverpastej till hands i jaktpauserna. Men de som anlitats att skydda följet har onda planer och lurar in dem i Apachernas land. Att alla aristokrater nu kommer att dödas är uppenbart, om det inte är för att en av västerns tuffaste revolvermän befinner sig i närheten. Hans namn är Shalako!<br/><br/>Både Sean Connery och Brigitte Bardot - 1960-talets största sexsymboler - nobbade 007-rafflet I hennes majestäts hemliga tjänst för att i stället göra SHALAKO. Utöver Connery är filmen berikad med ytterligare 007-bekantingar som Honor Blackman (Pussy Galore i Goldfinger), filmfotografen Ted Moore (Goldfinger, Åskbollen m fl) och actionkoordinatorn Bob Simmons (Älskade spion, Octopussy m fl). Filmen bygger på en bestseller av Louis L'Amour, Oscarbelönad för manuset till Hondo med John Wayne.<br/><br/>"MÅNGMILJONPRODUKTION MED STARKA INGREDIENSER AV VÅLD, EROTIK, TJUTANDE APACHER OCH ANDLÖST SKÖN VILDMARK" Expressen<br/>"EN MYCKET VÄLGJORD WESTERN" Los Angeles Times

In late-19th-century New Mexico, a hunting party of decadent European aristocrats wanders onto the reservation of some angry Apaches, and it's up to the mysterious wanderer, Shalako (Sean Connery), to save them from getting slaughtered. The group includes Honor Blackman (Pussy Galore in GOLDFINGER) as the sexually restless Lady Bagget and BrigItte Bardot as the sharp shooting Countess Lazaar, who (of course) falls for Shalako. <br/><br/>It's an unusual blend of wide-open Western action and European character intrigue as the decadent aristocrats sip champagne and flirt with their unwashed, treacherous cowboy guides. Veteran director Edward Dmytryk keeps the flaming arrows flying while Connery and Bardot hold attention in this weird hybrid of American Western and European art film. (Yes, Bardot has a seminude bathing scene.) <br/><br/>SHALAKO, based on the novel by Louis L'Amour, was filmed almost entirely outdoors amid the dark grey landscapes of Almeria, Spain, in a style undoubtedly indebted to the Sergio Leone spaghetti Westerns of the time.
