| Quantano is a small and isolated Mexican town run by the tyrannical, atheistic bandito Dirk Bogarde. John Mills arrives in Quantano as a dedicated Roman Catholic priest who ignores Bogarde's rules and invites people to attend church. His life is threatened, but Mills forges ahead and begins building a following, including Mylene Demongeot, a young girl who has a crush on the clergyman. Angered by this defiance, Bogarde begins killing peasants in alphabetical order, but stops after building a sort of reluctant admiration for the feisty priest. He even has one of his own men killed after another attempt on the priest's life. Bogarde confronts Mills and tells him that he will be allowed to live if he can determine which inspires good: the "singer" (priest) or the "song" (religion). |
