Rating: 4.5/5 -- Peckinpah's gentlest, boldest, and perhaps most likable film to date. Full Review

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. Full Review

Jason Robards shines in one of his most touching and humorous performances, and David Warner is memorable as a sinning preacher man. Full Review

Rating: 3.5/4 -- A fine movie, a wonderfully comic tale we didn't quite expect from a director who seems more at home with violence than with humor. Full Review

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.
