Bala Perdida (1960)

The title translates to "Stray Bullet" and while this Mexican film seems to be marketed as a western it is not.

The plot revolves around a singing bull fighter, a beautiful pharmacist, a jilted lover and a supposed criminal (Antonia Aguilar). We eventually learn from the bull fighter that there is a bet concerning two men about who can get the beauty for their own. At the same time, the former beau is persistent in getting her back. And through-out all this is the mystery of who this woman is and a child that has been sent away to boarding school. 

Available: Amazon, Netflix
