Django (1966)

[T.H.]

Worst spaghetti western? Or worst dubbing?

dubbing. I like Django quite a bit, although I prefer Companeros and Silence.

[Novecento]

Only would like to add that Nero's voice here is Gazzolo's, i.e. Ramon. I also liked the mexican musical theme.

I think you mean Sergio Graziano. There's a great article on "Italian Film Dubbing" on pages 12-18 of WAI #67 where this is mentioned.

Blue Underground's claim that their release has Franco Nero's own voice must be wrong.

To be released on Blu-ray in May 2010

I have no interest in Blu-ray at all (how clear do I really need my picture?) but if my father decides to get a player, as he's been insisting, I'll probably pick this up as my copy isn't in such great shape anymore.
Who would've known that people you lend things to would return it in such poor condition?
I've since made a new rule in life.

DON'T LET ANYBODY BORROW DVDS

I watched this a few months ago in Italian and it was such a better experience. The english dubbing, like previously stated, is unbelievably bad.

It does have a lot of charm though.

Yeah, sure, sure it does.

Yeah, definitely.

It works for me.

If you have the blue underground dvd, you have the italian audio as an option. You should check it out if you have access to it.

There is also some exclusive HD content, which may or may not be interesting.

Do you happen to know what it is?

[The Firecracker]

From http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/3022/django.html

Exclusive HD Content

    * Franco Nero Intro
    * The Last Pistolero: Short Film Starring Franco Nero
    * Western, Italian Style: a 1968 documentary about the Spaghetti Western phenomenon containing interviews with directors Enzo G. Castellari, Sergio Sollima and Sergio Corbucci


Supplements

    * Django: The One And Only: interviews with star Franco Nero and assistant director Ruggero Deodato
    * International trailer
    * Italian Trailer

The only thing new there would be the Franco Nero intro.
Everything else is on the original disc or is from another BU release (The Western Italian Style doc is from the Run Man Run BU release).
Thankfully, The Last Pistolero was a bonus disc on my Django dvd.

Thanks for the info HG.
