Synopsis:

Spaghetti western hero Terence Hill plays the title role - sort of - in Genius. A self-styled expert on Native Americans, Joe Thanks (Hill) champions the Indians' cause in the face of white hostility. The action scenes are convincing, even when offset by the tongue-in-cheek nature of the script. The incomparable Miou-Miou shows up as the heroine, while Klaus Kinski tries to take things seriously as a bandit. Ennio Morricone's score manages to pay homage to his earlier work in the films of Sergio Leone while still upholding the light-hearted nature of Genius. The film was also released as Un Genio, Due Compari, Un Pollo.

Expert conman Joe Thanks teams up with half-breed Bill and naive Lucy to steal $300,000 from the Indian-hating Major Cabot. Their elaborate plan is full of disguises, double-crosses, and chases, but Joe always seems to know what he's doing.

Three rogues set out to rob $300,000 from an Indian-hating cavalry major.
