Django, Prepare a Coffin (Italian: Preparati la bara!, “Prepare the Coffin!”), alternatively titled Viva Django, is a 1968 Italian spaghetti Western film directed by Ferdinando Baldi.[1] The film was produced by Manolo Bolognini, who also produced Sergio Corbucci's original film. The film stars Terence Hill in the title role, which was previously played by Franco Nero. Originally Nero was intended to star.[2]
A piece from the film's score, "Last Man Standing", was sampled in the song "Crazy" by American soul duo Gnarls Barkley.[3] The film's title song, "You'd Better Smile", is performed by Nicola Di Bari.[3]
It was shown as part of a retrospective on Spaghetti Western at the 64th Venice International Film Festival.[4]
