A surprisng Christmas movie in the shape of a Spaghetti Western, A PISTOL FOR RINGO is written and Directed by Duccio Tessari, who co-wrote A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS with Sergio Leone, the film that kick-started the Spaghetti Western genre and was thhe first of the Clint Eastwood "Man With No Name" films.

Inspired by the succeess of that film, Tessari decided to make his own. He had already made a "sword and sandal" film with actor and ex-stuntman Giuliano Gemma (here credited as "Montgomery Wood".) Gemma plays Ringo, a character that is in many ways an exact contrast to Eastwood's Man With No Name: he's charming, talkative, joyful, clean shaven, well dressed, and drinks milk instead of whiskey.
