You can stream The Mercenary (1968) on Amazon Prime with a subscription.

While a Mexican revolutionary lies low as a U.S. rodeo clown, the cynical Polish mercenary who tutored the idealistic peasant tells how he and a dedicated female radical fought for the soul of the guerrilla general Paco, as Mexicans threw off repressive government and all-powerful landowners in the 1910s. Tracked by the vengeful Curly, Paco liberates villages, but is tempted by social banditry's treasures, which Kowalski revels in.

Can a cynical soldier find redemption while caught in the crossfire of a Mexican revolution? This Spaghetti Western trades traditional heroism for a jagged, morally grey battle over the soul of a guerrilla leader.
