Genres & Description

Action Comedy Romance Western

6.9 / 10

James Garner plays a ladies' man who ends up on the run from a conquest. He has an embarrassing problem that requires a doctor, but that is not immediately disclosed. He and a town barsweep form a plot to impersonate a well-known gunfighter so that Garner can pay off his debts and skip town before the soon to come arrival of the real gunfighter. The cast is almost identical to Support Your Local Sheriff! (1969) and the humor is similar. Typical: "You hit him from behind!" Garner: "Just as hard as I could!"

One of my favourite movie of all time. Lost most of the key characters... Our generation is missing their near perfect, real fun and enchanting performances. We don't have 'em like this no more! Too great for thumbs ups alone, I stand and applaud you all. A Smiling, Peaceful rest to you James Garner. - @Thursday, September 24, 2015 6:26 PM

Even though Saddles was released later, what I wrote is still true. - @Tuesday, April 16, 2013 7:26 PM

It poked fun at Westerns like Blazing Saddles, but unlike Blazing Saddles, it did it with action and fun and not racial slurs and dirty stuff. - @Wednesday, March 27, 2013 10:11 PM
