The main lesson of this film may be “Never mistreat the garbage man, you don’t know how skilled of a gunslinger he is”. Kidding aside, it’s actually a great film about a character’s journey, and features a well written development hardly seen in Spaghetti Westerns, and still manages to be very entertaining.The film tells the story of Scott (Giuliano Gemma), son of a prostitute and an unknown father, who is the garbage man in Clifton, and how he rises to a position of influence in the town, thanks to the help of Frank Talby (Lee Van Cleef)’s lessons. Scott has a phenomenal arc, as he stays in between his own goals and personality and Talby’s pulling of his strings, until the inevitable confrontation between the two. The final conflict has one of the best examples of foreshadowing and character growth in the Spaghetti subgenre.
Lee Van Cleef gives a compelling, but “typecast” performance of the old gunfighter teaching important lessons to a young man. It was his third time landing a similar role, the first being in For a Few Dollars More, and the second being Death Rides a Horse. The difference being that in this movie, the “teacher” plays a villainous role, causing it to stand out.
Giuliano Gemma gives the performance of a lifetime, getting deep into his character of Scott. He has some of the best delivered lines in Spaghetti Western history, especially after his lessons, when he obtains an important position in the town’s hierarchy. The visible changes in posture, talking and expression as his character progresses are very remarkable.
The palette in this film, contrasting with many of its genre, is especially colorful, giving it a lively, almost cartoonish feeling. Examples of this are in the gambling house scenes, that are way more vividly colored than most westerns, not only at the time, but ever. That makes the whole experience of watching very enjoyable.
In conclusion, Day of Anger is a hidden gem of the Spaghetti Western. Counting with one of the few well-established character developments in the genre, great performances by two known faces of the era, and a vivid palette, this film should be able to please most audiences.

Thrilling spaghetti western with two great performances
Lee Van Cleef has always been an unsung hero. Although an instantly recognisable face with those cat-like eyes and chiselled cheekbones, there will be few casual film-goers who will be able to name many films of his outside of For a Few Dollars More (1965) and The Good, The Bad and the Ugly (1966). In Day of Anger, he may not take the lead role, but his Frank Talby, the dangerous yet charismatic gunfighter who wanders into town one day, steals the screen and your attention thanks to Van Cleef’s formidable presence, proving that he was one of cinema’s greatest character actors.In the small town of Clifton, bastard-born street sweeper Scott Mary (Euro-western legend Giuliano Gemma) is ridiculed and bullied due to his social status. When Frank Talby strolls into Clifton on the back of his horse, he sides with Scott, and ends up shooting a man in his defence. When Frank leaves, Scott follows in the hope of being taught how to be a great gunfighter. Frank agrees, but has some brutal lessons to teach him. But they find themselves returning to Clifton in the search of money owed to Frank by Wild Jack (Once Upon a Time in the West’s (1968) Al Mulock), where Frank hopes to deal some swift justice and make a mark of his own.
A protégé of Sergio Leone, this was director Tonino Valerri’s second movie in the chair, and he certainly knows how to shoot a western. It doesn’t share the extreme close-up’s of Leone’s work, but builds it’s fair share of tension, climaxing in an inevitable yet thrilling climax between teacher and student. The film is superbly filmed, backed by a ridiculously catchy score by Riz Ortolani from which the title song was used in Django Unchained (2012). But the film’s biggest boast is in the performances of Van Cleef and Gemma, the former proving he can play as good an anti-hero as any of his peers, and the latter convincing throughout his massive character shift. Highly recommended.

Apart from the bad dubbing, a surprisingly good ‘spaghetti western’.
As was so often the case, the only thing that lets this spaghetti western down is the atrocious dubbing. Otherwise Tonino Valerii’s “Day of Anger” is a remarkably fine and suitably violent addition to the genre with Giuliano Gemma’s garbage-boy being taught the art of gun-figting by gunslinger Lee Van Cleef. The setting is one of those corrupt western towns where almost everyone’s a villain so when they get their come-uppence you can’t help but feel a degree of satisfaction.Van Cleef may not be much of an actor but he had real star presence and he’s at his best here. It’s harder to judge Gemma’s performance since it’s not his voice we are hearing but he was certainly photogenic and handles the role with aplomb. Enzo Serafin was responsible for the superb widescreen cinematography, (it was shot in Spain), and, perhaps not surprisingly, the film has built up something of a cult reputation.
