''100 Rifles'' is a 1969 [[TheWestern western]] directed by Tom Gries and starring Jim Brown, Creator/BurtReynolds, Creator/RaquelWelch and Fernando Lamas. The original music score was composed by Music/JerryGoldsmith.
In 1912 Mexico, Arizona lawman Lyedecker (Brown) chases Yaqui Joe (Reynolds), a half-Yaqui, half-white bank robber, when they are captured by the Mexican general Verdugo (Lamas). While imprisoned, Lyedecker learns that Joe used the loot to buy 100 rifles for the Yaqui people, who are being repressed by the government, but Lyedecker doesn't care about Joe's motive, intending to recover the money and apprehend Joe to further his career. The two men escape a Mexican firing squad and flee to the hills, where they meet Sarita (Welch), a beautiful Indian revolutionary. The fugitives become allies and the trio lead the Yaqui against Verdugo's forces.

* BlackVikings: Discussed. Yaqui Joe is quite surprised to find an African-American lawman in the 1910s. Lyedecker justifies it by saying that he took "a job nobody wanted, and even at that it took me a whole year to get it."
* GeneralRipper: General Verdugo, who knows no restraints.
* InspectorJavert: Lyedecker zig-zags between being this and SympatheticInspectorAntagonist; on one hand Yaqui Joe's crime is serious enough for Lyedecker to be the latter, but his steadfast insistence (at first) to not listen to Joe's motives inclines him towards being the former.
* MeaningfulName: General Verdugo. Verdugo means "executioner" in Spanish, which is appropiate for the film's GeneralRipper.
* MixedAncestry: Yaqui Joe is half-Yaqui, half-white.
* MsFanservice: Raquel Welch's Sarita gracefully demonstrates that apparently there weren't any bras during the Mexican Revolution.
* SexySoakedShirt: Sarita at one point takes a shower under a water tower with a shirt on. Given that Sarita was played by Raquel Welch, it was ''definitely'' for {{Fanservice}} purposes.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Lyedecker and Yaqui Joe don't get along, but have to team up to fend off the Mexican army.
* YouKilledMyFather: General Verdugo killed Sarita's father; another reason why she opposes him.
