Guns for San Sebastian (French:La Bataille de San Sebastian) is an 1968 French action-adventure film based on the 1962 novel A Wall for San Sebastian, written by Rev. Fr. William Barnaby "Barby" Faherty, S.J. The film is directed by Frenchman Henri Verneuil, it stars Anthony Quinn and Charles Bronson. The score is by Ennio Morricone.
It is a rare instance of a spaghetti western actually being shot in Mexico instead of substituting Spain or some similar European location.
Plot
In 1743, a womanizing atheist outlaw, Leon Alastray (Anthony Quinn), is pursued by the Spanish military. Given sanctuary by an altruistic priest (Sam Jaffe), he is taken to a village terrorized by marauding Indians.
When the priest is killed, Alastray is mistaken for a priest himself. He at first denies it, but, finding the love of a village woman, and encouraged by the persuasive power of a fake miracle, decides to take on the role and thereby organize the villagers against the predatory raids of the Yaqui Indians.
San Sebastián (Spanish:[san seβasˈtjan]; French:Saint-Sébastien) or Donostia (Basque:[doˈnos̺tia]) is a coastal city and municipality located in the Basque Autonomous Community, Spain. It lies on the coast of the Bay of Biscay, 20km (12 miles) from the French border. Capital city of Gipuzkoa, the municipality's population is 186,409 (2012), with its metropolitan area reaching 436,500 (2010). Locals call themselves donostiarra (singular), both in Spanish and Basque.
The main economic activities are commerce and tourism, and it is one of the most famous tourist destinations in Spain. Despite the city’s small size, events such as the San Sebastián International Film Festival have given it an international dimension. San Sebastián, along with Wrocław, Poland, will be the European Capital of Culture in 2016.
Etymology
In spite of appearances, both the Basque form Donostia and the Spanish form San Sebastián have the same meaning of Saint Sebastian. The dona/dono/doni element in Basque place-names signifies "saint" and is derived from Latindomine; the second part of Dono(stia) contains a shortened form of the saint's name.
San Sebastián de la Gomera is a town (the main port and capital) and a municipality on La Gomera in the Canary Islands, Spain. The population is 8,699 (2013) and the area is 113.59km².
The port serves ferry routes to the islands of Tenerife, La Palma and El Hierro. Streets include Calle Real and F. Olsen. A bus station named Estación de Guaguas is used for bus lines throughout the island; it is located on Avenida Quinta Centenario.
Historical population
History
The area was inhabited by the Guanches before the arrival of the Spanish. Hernán Peraza arrived in 1440. Christopher Columbus stopped at the harbour on 6 September 1492 before heading to India but arrived in America instead. The building in which Columbus stayed whilst on the island is now a museum.

Tony Kakko I could see my life, short film passing my eyes I tried to look away from her, as always I just tried Sweetness in her eyes, gone thru one million miles How could I turn my back on her, the sweetest thing alive I was eager, day time dreamer, waiting time when I'd come alive Sun of San Sebastian eighteen years young today She's all I ever dreamed, but now my skies are turning gray It was good I got to know her well, because it made me see That the sun of San Sebastian is just too hot for me Look what I have done to my San Sebastian I wasted all my childhood dreams by staring at sun Back in time with a dream of mine I try to find my way back to life Burning fever, night time screamer, waiting time when I'd come alive Sun of San Sebastian oh why I cannot stay She's all I ever dreamed, but now my skies are turning gray It was good I got to know her well, because it made me see That the sun of San Sebastian Is just too hot for me Every single day, for the rest of my way I live without my love, my God, I have to stay in shade When I'm old and gray, I remember that day When she came, that perfect dame and she blew me away I was eager, day time dreamer, waiting time when I'd come alive Oo-oo... Was it good I got to know her well although it made me see That the sun of San Sebastian is way too hot for me? Oo-oo.. Now I live my life in shades and I am married to the moon
