This is an European co-production , Italian : Jolly Films , Spain : Trio or Ocean Films (Enrique Rivas) , Germany : Constantine Film of M\u00fanich (Gunter Raguse) . As Italian producers Giorgio Papi and Arrigo Colombo formerly produced the first Spaghetti\/Paella Western titled \u00a8Gringo\u00a8 by Ricardo Blasco with similar technician team as Dan Savio or Ennio Morricone , cameramen : M\u00e1ssimo Dallamano , Julio Ortas and secondary actors . After that , Papi and Colombo whose production company is called Jolly Films wish to produce two Westerns , the first with biggest budget titled \u00a8Le Pistole non Discutono\u00a8, screenplay and filmmaking by Mike Perkins or Mario Caiano ; the second in little budget titled \u00a8For a fistful of dollars\u00a8 by Sergio Leone with Clint Eastwood , as Sergio had to work in short budget , about 40 million of Liras for six weeks . The offer over both films included same locations , most technicians , costumes and same support cast . The most important difference was Rod Cameron whose salary was greatest than Fistful of dollars’s all cast . As “Bullets Don’t Argue” was shot at the same time to \u00a8Fistful of dollars\u00a8 sharing atrezzo , gowns , sets , casting and many of them nicknamed under American pseudonyms . Both movies were filmed in similar exteriors such as rocks from La Pedriza (Madrid) , meadows of Dehesa of Navalvillar in Colmenar Viejo , Aldea Del Fresno (Madrid) and Almeria . Furthermore , at the Western village called ‘Western City of Colmenar Viejo’ that represents the ‘ghost village’ , being built by Augusto Lega and Felix Michelena , the first shooting there took place was \u00a8The terrible sheriff\u00a8 (1963) by Antonio Momplet and Alberto De Martino .

The musician Ennio Morricone composes a nice soundtrack and well conducted , this turns out to be one of the most memorable parts of the movie ; as it’s full of enjoyable sounds and haunting musical background , including guitar and whispers , Morricone’s ordinary marks . It contributes tremendously to the atmosphere of the film, adding an emotive leitmotif , the score is perhaps the best part of this film . Striking cinematography by Julio Ortas\/Massimo Dallamano including a correct remastering . Outdoor sequences with barren and rocky exteriors filmed in Spanish places located on outskirts Madrid , prairie of Colmenar Viejo , Hoyo De Manzanares and La Pedriza , and of course , Almeria . Mario Caiano’s direction is well crafted , here he’s less cynical and humorous and more inclined toward violence and packs too much action , but especially this moving Western contains long shot’em up and thrills . Mario under pseudonym Mike Perkins directed this acceptable western , genre in which he would not only excel but one where he would spent much of the rest of his career , as he directed several Spaghetti : \u00a8Brandy\u00a8, \u00a8Avenger of California\u00a8 , \u00a8Ringo, face of revenge\u00a8 , \u00a8Bullets don’t argue\u00a8, \u00a8Lone and angry man\u00a8 , \u00a8A train to Durango\u00a8. Caiano is a craftsman who has directed all kind of genres as Peplum as \u00a8Ulisse vs Ercole\u00a8, \u00a8I due Gladiatori\u00a8, \u00a8Maciste Gadiatori di Sparta\u00a8 and Terror : \u00a8Nightmare castle\u00a8, \u00a8 Eye in the labyrinth\u00a8 and even Pornonazi as \u00a8Nazi love camp 27\u00a8. Although Caiano couldn’t be deemed an “A”-list director, his movies had a professionalism and a verve that many of those made by his fellow B directors lacked . This attractive as well as uneven Western but will appeal to Spaghetti aficionados . Rating : 7 , riotous Western in which there’s too much violence , action and excitement enough .
