The theatrical re-release poster with the new title A Fistful of Dynamite

Duck! You Sucker! is a 1971 Western directed by Sergio Leone and starring James Coburn as a fugitive Irish explosives expert who escapes to Mexico to only find himself mixed up in another revolution. This film was released in the US under the title "Duck, You Sucker!", which is the literal English translation of the Italian title (which is "Giù la testa, coglione!"). However, it was subsequently re-released under the title A Fistful of Dynamite in order to capitalize on Leone's previous films. MGM would later release the film on DVD under the original title.

The film was Leone's last western. It is also his most overlooked film, mostly due to the film being marketed as a comedy/satire of westerns, especially his earlier 'Man With No Name' trilogy.


The following weapons were used in the film Duck, You Sucker! aka A Fistful of Dynamite:


Handguns

Single Action Army

Juan (Rod Steiger) uses a Single Action Army Long Barrel throughout the film, most notably to threaten John. It is also used by revolutionaries and the soldiers.
