100 Rifles
All they need is… 100 RIFLES
Directed by Tom Gries
Produced by Marvin Schwartz Productions, 20th Century Fox
A 1960s action-adventure Western that uses a bank robbery and prison escape to explore themes of loyalty, identity, and solidarity across racial and national lines in revolutionary Mexico.
When half-breed Indian Yaqui Joe robs an Arizona bank, he is pursued by dogged lawman Lyedecker. Fleeing to Mexico, Joe is imprisoned by General Verdugo, who is waging a war against the Yaqui Indians. When Lyedecker attempts to intervene, he is thrown into prison as well. Working together, the two escape and take refuge in the hills, where Lyedecker meets beautiful Yaqui freedom fighter Sarita and begins to question his allegiances.
