Los Amigos (''Punto e Capo'', also known as ''Deaf Smith & Johnny Ears'') is a 1973 spaghetti western film starring Anthony Quinn and Franco Nero in 1973. The film is loosely based on the life of Deaf Smith, with direction of Paolo Cavara. ==Plot== The Republic of Texas has just gained its independence from Mexico. Erastus "Deaf" Smith, who is a deaf mute, and his partner Johnny Ears are sent by President Sam Houston to stop general Morton, who plots against the annexation of Texas by the USA. They find their contact McDonald and his family massacred by Morton and his men. McDonald’s daughter Hester is married to Morton, and when Smith convinces her of the truth, she helps them overhear a conversation where a German diplomat promises Morton new weapons. They have a saloon fight with Morton's gang. At a brothel, Johnny recognizes a prostitute he saw bathing in a river, Suzie Q. Deaf pays so he can spend a night with her. Later he is jealous on her other customers, but when she suggests that they leave together using her money, he says that Deaf needs him. Later he refuses to go on with the dangerous mission because he is in love and hits Deaf. Deaf steals dynamite in Morton’s fort but is almost given away by a garter with bells that he was given by a prostitute and has forgotten that he still keeps in his pocket. He is then pursued and kills the men in sneak fight in a cave, by throwing knives against their gun blazes. Johnny now rejoins him and offers Deaf to return the blow. They laugh. They set a trap with explosives to blow up the weapons transport to Morton, but stop the explosion when they see that children are part of the wagon train. Instead they infiltrate Morton's fort and destroy his men with explosives and with the new weapon, a machine gun that Deaf can handle because he could read the lips of the instructor. Hester is killed during the fight. Morton begs for his life. He is given a gun by Deaf, goes for it, and is killed. Susie leaves together with Johnny and Deaf. In the morning the deaf mute is gone, leaving Johnny his watch. Johnny cries out his name. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Los Amigos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
