What Am I Doing in the Middle of a Revolution?
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
What Am I Doing in the Middle of a Revolution? (also known as: What do we have to do with the revolution? or What do we care about the revolution? ) is a 1972 Italian-Spanish Spaghetti Western film directed by Sergio Corbucci and starring Vittorio Gassman and Paolo Villaggio as the theatrical actor Guido Guidi and the father Albino Moncalieri.
The following weapons were used in the film What Am I Doing in the Middle of a Revolution?:
Colt M1911A1
Peppino Garibaldi (Riccardo Garrone) carries a Colt M1911A1 as his personal weapon, although it is not used until Pepino, outraged by how his compatriots, Albino Moncalieri (Paolo Villaggio) and Guido Guidi (Vittorio Gassman), are going to be executed, shoots the rope to free them. It is mainly seen on Peppino's holster. Colonel Herrero (Eduardo Fajardo) uses a Colt M1911A1 during the final scene at the Mexico Palace, although the camera does not focus on it at all, making it a bit difficult to identify.
Colt Single Action Army
During Guido Guidi's performance at the theater in México, several revolutionaries and some of the members of the performance are armed with Colt Single Action Armys. Carrasco's revolutionaries are also armed with Colt Single Action Armys which they use to defend themselves from the Mexican army. Doña Asunción (Uncredited) uses a Colt Single Action Army to murder a soldier who was selling her several severed hands of the revolutionaries for 3 pesos each.
Smith & Wesson .44 Double Action
Carrasco (Leo Ancóriz) is armed with a Smith & Wesson .44 Double Action when he argues with Albino Moncalieri (Paolo Villaggio) in the monastery in Mexico. Presumably he also carries it in previous scenes, but sheathed in his holster.
Garate El Tigre
During the beginning of the film, several Garate El Tigre remain stored in a box in the Mexican theater, suggesting that the revolutionaries are setting up a trap. Carrasco (Leo Anchóriz) is armed with a Gárate El Tigre as his main weapon, carrying a special rifle holster to carry it at all times. The revolutionaries, led by Carrasco, mostly carry Garate El Tigre rifles to combat the soldiers of the Mexican army.
Mauser Model 1893
Mexican army soldiers carry several 1893 Spanish Mausers as service rifles, which they use against revolutionaries. When Albino Moncalieri (Paolo Villaggio) and Guido Guidi (Vittorio Gassman) are about to be shot by the Mexican army, Colonel Herrero (Eduardo Fajardo) orders that some captured revolutionaries be the shooters. This latter to test an experimental mechanism to execute the shooter of the rifle instead of the target.
Remington Model 1867 Rolling Block
Although to a lesser extent than the Garate El Tigre, the revolutionaries also carried several Remington Rolling Blocks to combat the soldiers of the Mexican army.
Browning M1919A4 (Mocked-up as a Maxim M1895)
During the first battle we see between Carrasco's revolutionaries and the Mexican army, Guido Guidi (Vittorio Gassman) and Albino Moncalieri (Paolo Villaggio) find a vehicle to escape from the scene. This vehicle has a rear-mounted Maxim M1895 that Guido Guidi accidentally uses against several soldiers. The Mexican army is armed with these Maxim machine guns and in several scenes they use them against the revolutionaries, highlighting when the Mexican army ambushes and executes many revolutionaries in the Mexican plaza. Peppino Garibaldi's (Riccardo Garrone) biplane carries a Maxim machine gun, which is used by Peppino himself against the Mexican soldiers and by Guido Guidi against Carrasco's revolutionaries. A brief inspection reveals that these Maxim machine guns are a mock-up built from a Browning M1919A4.
Maxim MG08
During the first confrontation between the revolutionaries and the Mexican army, what appears to be a MG08 can be seen in the town taken over by the revolutionaries. It is never used and is not seen again at any point in the film, so it only serves as stage decoration.
