A train is attacked in a very clever but also very brutal way. The gangsters capture $300,000 in gold coins and kill all passengers. Only one man lives just long enough to tell the exact course of the attack to insurance agent Hutch Bessy. Hutch recognizes the handwriting of the infamous gangster Bill San Antonio behind the plan, but Bill was supposed to have been killed in a duel with Hutch's friend Cat Stevens. So Hutch starts looking for Cat and tells him about his suspicion. At first Cat doesn't believe that Bill is still alive, because he shot him about 10 months ago, but finally he starts to doubt. He begins to follow the story and finally finds out about Bill San Antonio's gang. But Hutch is also after Bill. Unlike Cat he has no personal reasons. He's after the captured gold on behalf of the insurance company. In the headquarters of the gang, Cat and Hutch succeed to steal the gold from the gang and flee. But on the run there is a real difference of opinion between the two, since Hutch wants to go directly to insurance with the gold, while Cat only wants to settle with Bill San Antonio. The brawl between the two ends being captured by the gang again. But Hutch and Cat buried the gold box during their escape, so Bill can't just kill them. By torture he tries to get out the place of the gold box, but with Cats fate and Hutch's forces the two finally manage to escape again. The final showdown between Cat and Bill San Antonio takes place at the site of the first duel, where the gold box is also buried. God forgives... I don't! is, apart from Hannibal, the first film of the duo Bud Spencer and Terence Hill. Both actors had to give up their common names for this film and acquire American-sounding stage names. Mario Girotti became Terence Hill, Carlo Pedersoli became Bud Spencer and one of the most successful duos in film history was born. This first collaboration came about by chance. Bud Spencer was initially not very enthusiastic about the offer of director Giuseppe Colizzi to play one of the leading roles in his film. Colizzi needed a gigantic but athletic actor for the film and had difficulties finding an alternative to Bud Spencer. So Colizzi remained stubborn and convinced first Bud to take the role and then his producers to accept Buds high salary expectations. Colizzi originally wanted to fill the role of Cat Stevens with Peter Martell. But he broke his foot at the beginning of the shooting and that's why Terence Hill, who had just finished shooting Little Rita of the West, was hired as a replacement. Based on Sergio Leone's successful film The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo, I 1966) this film was originally intended to be called The dog, the cat, the fox (Il cane, il gatto, il volpe). Only shortly before the cinema premiere the movie became God forgives... I don't! (Dio perdona... io no!). In Germany, the movie was entitled God forgives - Django never! (German: Gott vergibt - Django nie!). The film is not a Django film, but nevertheless the title should be related to the successful film series. It is also fitting that Terence Hills character is called Django in the German dubbing version. Later the film was renamed to God forgives - we both never! (German: Gott vergibt - wir beide nie!) to emphasize that Bud and Terence are playing in the film. The film was so successful that it got a sequel: Ace High. Runtimes: German DVD (long version, with subtitled scenes): 108:11 minutes. German TV version (no subtitled scenes): 94:50 minutes.
