What happens

Texas, Adios (Italian: Texas, addio; Spanish: Adiós, Texas) is a 1966 Italian-Spanish spaghetti Western film co-written and directed by Ferdinando Baldi and starring Franco Nero, Alberto Dell'Acqua (as Cole Kitosch), José Suárez and Elisa Montés. Arriving shortly after Django, and featuring some of the same team but a different director, it ditches much of the former's European idiosyncrasies. Instead, it opts for a more classical, Hollywood-inspired approach that has been likened, including by Nero himself, to the films of Gary Cooper. Perhaps for this reason, it is not as widely remembered as its predecessor, although it was a commercial success at the time. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
