I saw this movie recently and actually thought Claudia Cardinale was beautiful in it as she was in "Once Upon a Time in the West", BUT did not realize it was her until i came to read it on IMDB.. I had seen the movie a long time ago and did not remember much. I actually thought it was Raquel Welch who really was of Mexican Descent and would have been about the same age at the time. They are only two years apart and are both still alive.. Cardinale was born 1938 and Raquel Welch in 1940.. Both are (were) very attractive. Who is better looking?

Both are very nice looking women, but I have to give the nod to Racquel in this contest. 100 Rifles and Bandolero puts her over the top in the contest as far as westerns go. "Mother, Jugs, and Speed" really does it over all. She was smoking in that movie.

As has been noted, both are exceptional beauties but I have to cast my vote for Raquel. Easily. 27|82

Can I have one of each? And Virna Lisi on the side?

Cardinale will always get my vote.

But Welch's chest brings her that little bit closer to parity.

Never defend crap with "It's just a movie"

Cardinale.

"They are real, and they are spectacular."

Also, a truly sexy face. Welch's was a bit "hard."

Cardinale was part of a long line, it seems:

Loren
Lollabrigida
Cardinale
Others (there were a couple of Italian hotties in the seventies)
Monica Belluci

Italian beauties...beauty doesn't come any more beautiful

Raquel was my pinup in the military but Claudia does have a earthy sexiness that puts them both in the lucky to be a guy with either babe catagory.....

Ursula Andress. (This was a hot debate when I was in college in the mid-sixties, and Ursula was the correct answer.)

Dude, she wasn't one of the choices here!

Of course, Claudia was more beautiful. But hotter, well, Raquel was sexier, very slinky and blowtorch hot. CC was more the serious actress with the most stunning face in cinematic history.
