A close analysis of Damiano Damiani's political Spaghetti Western "Quien sabe" (1966), examining how the film seeks to interrogate the Hollywood Western's affirmative ideologies and inscribe the format with countercultural radicalism. The article also identifies the inadvertent subtexts within the film that bespeak the cultural confusions in 1960s Italian politics
