Companeros is every bit as awesome as that poster makes it look. Weirdly, there's another nearly identical Western called Il Mercenario, with roughly the same major cast and director. This is the best quality I could find, sadly.

I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

WereAre Franco Nero and Terence Hill related? Because I thought that was Terence Hill in that movie until I double checked.

edit: holy cow Hill's not dead. He's 75 but he's not dead. Nero neither.

I was watching a documentary hosted by Melvin Van Peebles called Classified X, and it briefly goes into the phenomenon of Hollywood films that attempted to deal with race and miscegenation. This sort of melodrama -- in which a white person was cast in the role of a 'yellow' Negro (a Black man or woman who could pass for white) -- was actually fairly common. Some other examples include:

Both the 1930s and 1950s adaptations of Imitation of Life
Elia Kazan's Pinky
Lost Boundaries from 1949

Weird to disdain it as a "phenomenon" and merely an "attempt" - both versions of Imitation of Life and Pinky are among the best and most progressive of American films. This subgenre goes back at least to Nella Larsen's seminal novel Passing, which I can't believe was never directly adapted.

If it's any consolation, I haven't seen those films and was not in any sense intending some pejorative connotation, but was explicitly referencing Classified X. It's a quite thorough and sincere documentary that is equally critical of independent Black cinema or 'race movies' through the 1920s-1940s, where there are clear elements of minstrelsy and racialist stereotyping as well.

I know Van Peebles' name can also conjure up a lot of connotations for people based on that one movie Sweet Sweetback, which was really just one part of this really talented and complex creative mind. His Story of a Three Day Pass or La Permission is a French New Wave film about an interracial affair between an American soldier and a cosmopolitan French woman.

There's also the hilarious / sad as Hell Watermelon Man, which basically reverses the paradigm established by the racial melodramas of the Code era. It's about a middle class, obnoxious white suburbanite who wakes up one morning to find out that he's 'transformed' into a Black man. Initially, Columbia tried to pressure Van Peebles to use a prominent white actor and put him in blackface, rather than the way he executed it, with actor Godfrey Cambridge in white face for only the film's opening act, and then spending the rest of the film 'adjusting' to the new reality of his Blackness and the sudden vacuum of privileges. Tellingly, Columbia also pressured Van Peebles to change the film's ending, which he also didn't do. They wanted it to end with him returning to being white and getting 'his life back;' a contemporary Job story. In Van Peebles' vision, not only does he accept his Blackness, the last scene in the film is him at a Black militant self-defense seminar.

Oh man, I adore Watermelon Man. That one and The Spook Who Sat By the Door are probably my two favorites of that revolutionary black film movement. Read Van Peeble's Ain't Supposed To Die A Natural Death, if you haven't. That's a stunner.
