Entertainment Reviews:
Sam Peckinpah followed The Wild Bunch with this intimate, eccentric, appealing 1970 comedy, which treats many of the same themes in a soft, regretful mode.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
Not a hit at the box office, it remains one of his finest efforts, funny, touching and never mawkishly sentimental.

Robards' warm performance makes the film into a casual delight.

Rating: B+ --
Peckinpah shows atypical humor and sense of music too in this original and lyrical comedy-Western-musical, with Jason Robards in top form as one of the director's most sympathetic character.

Description by OLDIES.com:
It's 1908. The West has changed. Grizzled frontiersman Cable Hogue (Jason Robards) hasn't. Despite the fortune he's made selling water to thirsty desert travelers, he lies in wait. Someday two no-account desert rats -- who long ago robbed Hogue and left him to die in the baking Arizona sand -- will drop by for a drink.
