Django (Pluto TV, Peacock, Plex) is a 1966 Spaghetti Western directed by Sergio Corbucci. Uncredited, but the movie is based on Akira Kurosawa's film Yojimbo. The film follows a Union soldier-turned-drifter (Django) and his companion, a prostitute, who become embroiled in a bitter, destructive feud between a gang of Confederate Red Shirts and a band of Mexican revolutionaries. It was a commercial success upon release and has garnered a large cult following. It is widely regarded as one of the best films of the Spaghetti Western genre. Django Strikes Again is the only official sequel, though the name Django appears in many a film title. I've seen it numerous times but can't find that I've ever written a blog post on it. This is one of the Spaghetti Westerns that should go on any list of best of the genre.
