Corri, Uomo, Corri (original title) is Sergio Sollima's sequel to The Big Gundown.

The intro sequence sets the tone for the film perfectly, starting off with with the image of a worn down, blood stained Mexican newspaper. What follows next is a dramatic cut sequence, made up of close-up images of a sinister, expressive ink drawing that depicts the victims of some violent atrocity. In the next scenes, the images are juxtaposed with classic Spaghetti Western scenes featuring gangs of men on horses engaged in battle. Title designer Iginio Lardani applies his trademark duotone style and shows he's also a talented colorist. And again, Lardani's admiration for Pop Art and Warhol's early silkscreen works is obvious.

About the designer

Iginio Lardani

Not so much is known about Iginio 'Gigi' Lardani, so we contacted his son Alberto Lardani who worked with his father for more than twelve years. "My father didn't attend any kind of graphic design school", Alberto writes, "He was an autodidact with a great interest in painting. He entered the film world as film poster designer and created, among others, the Italian poster of 'High Noon'. Beside the 'Dollars' trilogy, my father designed the title sequences of many other Italian films, but his main activity was the editing of film trailers. His trailers of 'Mogliemante' by M. Vicario and 'Una Giornata Particolare' by Ettore Scola were awarded first and second place among five hundred trailers within the Cannes film festival of 1978. And Iginio created TV ads".

"He was allowed an entirely free hand when designing title sequences and film trailers and he worked from his own study. Since 1986, the year my father passed away, I have continued his work" explains Alberto.
