User blog:Iluvkc0c/Drifter Takes on the Ex-Slave: Django (1966) vs. Django (2012)



The treasure-seeking drifter named Django will have his gunslinging skills put to the test against the slave turned bounty hunter also called Django. Who will reign supreme?

The Drifter
Django, played by Franco Nero in Django (1966), is a typical Western drifter who has suffred the loss of his wife to bandits. Determined to have his revenge against the bandit leader, Jackson, he forms a shaky alliance with a Mexican bandit leader by the name of Rodriguez. They succeed in killing most of Jackson's men and steal gold from the Mexican government. However, Django wants the lion's share and steals Rodriguez of his loot. Django is soon captured by the bandit's men and is punished by having hs hands broken. Jackson realizes that Django was responsible for his men's deaths so he goes on his own revenge quest. Django, despite having his hands broken, kills Jackson and his remaining squad ironically in a cemetery.

The Slave
In Quentin Tarantino's latest film, Django Unchained (2012), Jamie Foxx plays the new version of Django, a librated slave who became a bounty hunter under the tutelage of Dr. King Schultz. He learns priceless skills in gunslinging and sneaking. The two form a deal where Django will help Dr. Schultz find and kill wanted men while trying to find Django's wife, Broomhilda, who is also a slave. The two locate here in one of the largest plantations in Mississippi, Candyland, which is run by the suave, yet cruel Calvin Candie. Their plan in freeing Broomhilda fails and Schultz is killed while Django is reenslaved. Using his cunning and the skills Dr. Schultz taught him, Django frees himself and is successful in freeing his wife.
