In 1971 Hans W. Geisendörfer went with an illustrious cast to Israel to turn Schiller's classic drama Don Carlos with teutonic heaviness into a film, which could very well be called a western. The result, which due to complicated contracts and shooting problems was only shown on German TV, is not too remarkable but still worth a look (or two).

Comment

In 1971 Hans W. Geisendörfer went with an illustrious cast to Israel to turn Schiller's classic drama Don Carlos with teutonic heaviness into a film, which could very well be called a western. The result, which due to complicated contracts and shooting problems was only shown on German TV, is not too remarkable but still worth a look (or two).
