Double Feature: COMPANEROS (VAMOS A MATAR, COMPANEROS), 1970, 118 min. Dir. Sergio Corbucci. Electrifying showdown between greats Franco Nero and Tomas Milian begins, but so does the flashback: Swedish gunrunner Nero has a trainload of arms, with his payoff locked in a safe that only pacifist rebel leader rival Fernando Rey can open. But joint-puffing Jack Palance and his flesh-loving falcon bear a grudge. In Italian with English subtitles. [35mm]
