About Ringo's Big Night
On a dusty stagecoach bound for Tombstone, a bold heist makes the cash a beacon for a brutal manhunt. Federal agents pledge to recover the loot, and the story follows a notorious gunman and a wounded outlaw who are forced into a precarious partnership behind bars. The pair learns about the other bandits through whispered clues, and their next moves hinge on who can stay one step ahead. As authorities close in and a web of aliases comes to light, a plan to retrieve the money drives a tense pursuit across towns, saloons, and back alleys, where trust is scarce and every decision could be fatal. The harsh land shapes every choice and pace the pursuit through heat and dust.
Ringo's Big Night was directed by Mario Maffei and stars William Berger, Adriana Ambesi, and Eduardo Fajardo. The 1966 Western uses a brisk, pared down storytelling style typical of mid era frontier cinema, with practical shoots and lean dialogue.
Box office data for Ringo's Big Night is not widely documented, and the film remains a relatively obscure entry from the 1960s Western scene with limited international exposure. It did not achieve notable box office milestones, and distribution remained uneven across territories globally.
There are no notable awards or nominations listed for this title. In film histories it tends to surface only as a curio for fans of Italian directed Westerns and for collectors seeking early collaborations of actors like Berger and Fajardo. The absence of accolades is part of its charm.
Reception is modestly positive among genre fans, with the plot concentrating on survival, shifting loyalties, and the cost of greed. The film leans into the tension of a compact time frame setting where characters weigh trust against self interest, loyalty versus survival, and the blurry line between outlaw and ally.
