James Coburn has A Reason To Live, A Reason To Die playing a disgraced Union officer during the Civil War who must redeem himself by leading a group of condemned criminals (including Bud Spencer) on a deadly mission to overtake the Confederate forces commanded by a bloodthirsty Telly Savalas.
“A Reason to Live, a Reason to Die is a sort of The Dirty Dozen in western form, with a few pinches of The Wild Bunch and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.” – Spaghetti Western Database
