A Few Dollars for Django (Italian: Pochi dollari per Django) is a 1966 Italian Spaghetti Western film directed by León Klimovsky and starring Anthony Steffen.[1][2] Although he was credited as a second unit director, Enzo G. Castellari directed a main part of the film.[3][4]

The film's title was meant to evoke the recent Spaghetti Westerns For a Few Dollars More (1965) and Django (1966), although A Few Dollars for Django has no direct connection to either one; there is no character in the film named Django.

Plot

A bounty hunter named Regan wishes to settle down and begin a new life, maybe become sheriff, but a murder leads him in pursuit of bank robbers and lands him in a range war with farmers and cattlemen.
