Adiós, Sabata (Indio Black, sai che ti dico: Sei un gran figlio di...)

Adiós, Sabata is a 1970 Italian-Spanish Spaghetti Western directed by Gianfranco Parolini, who made it under the pseudonym Frank Kramer. It runs 106 minutes; Renato Izzo wrote the screenplay, Alberto Grimaldi produced it and Bruno Nicolai composed the music. Its original Italian title, Indio Black, sai che ti dico: Sei un gran figlio di..., roughly means "Indio Black, you know what I'm going to tell you: you're a big son of a...".

The film is the second part of Parolini's Sabata trilogy and followed Sabata, released the year before. Lee Van Cleef, who played Sabata in the first and third films, is absent this time and Yul Brynner takes over the lead; Van Cleef had signed up for another western, La Chevauchée des sept mercenaires. Alongside Brynner, the cast includes Dean Reed, Gérard Herter, Franco Fantasia, Nieves Navarro and Sal Borgese.

The name "Sabata" was in fact added later. In the original Italian version and its title song the hero is called Indio Black. It was attached after shooting ended to exploit the first film's international success, especially in the American market, where Brynner's Indio Black became Sabata. The trilogy was completed a year later, when Van Cleef returned to the role in Return of Sabata.
