Synopsis
Django & Django (2021) is a documentary about the spaghetti western you can watch online on iFILM. Quentin Tarantino pays tribute to his idol, the Italian director Sergio Corbucci.
Corbucci (1926–1990) made the original Django with Franco Nero and dozens of westerns that ran dirtier, meaner and bloodier than anything Sergio Leone shot. Tarantino, who never hides how much these films shaped him, breaks them down scene by scene — the mud, the violence, the politics buried in postwar Italy. Franco Nero and Ruggero Deodato speak to the camera; archive footage of Clint Eastwood and Klaus Kinski flickers past.
Director Luca Rea assembles less a tidy biography than a fan's love letter from a student to his teacher. Best for anyone who has seen Django Unchained and wants to trace where half of Tarantino's tricks came from. Stream Django & Django online on iFILM.
