A funny, funny western movie high on my hit parade
The cast is super, the plot is excellent, at every turn, there is a better one coming! Just sit back and enjoy! Hard to find at a reasonable cost, but worth it when you watch it. When I'm tired of TV - this is my pick of the 100+ DVDs I have on Hand!
