About Gunman Sent by God
Anthony Steffen, as a young gunman who works as a circus performer, witnesses the killing of some outlaws, carried out by their leader and is credited with the deed. Steffen suffers from a complex which blocks him in front of any violence and makes him appear cowardly, so when a young boy is kidnapped he must find a way to regain his composure.
Directed by Giorgio Ferroni, Gunman Sent by God leans on a strong ensemble — Anthony Steffen, Richard Wyler, Giovanni Cianfriglia — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about western titles of 1968.
