Rather an anomaly among Peckinpah films, this is largely played for laughs, but contains some potent tragedy as well. I find it quite delightful (always enjoy Robards, and Stevens is pretty damn fetching here), and there's a lyrical Jerry Goldsmith score to boot.

This is one of my favorite Peckinpah films. It is definitely not a typical "western."

The thread of the film is the story of Cable Hogue who is out of touch with technology, a theme very current today more than when the film was originally released.

This film gives Stella Stevens the best acting performance of her career. David Warner is terrific as well.
