One day someone will propose to perpetrate a robbery ...
Directed by Volker Vogeler, Yankee Dudler leans on a strong ensemble — Arthur Brauss, Fred Stillkrauth, Sigi Graue — 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 1973.
