Today's feature is a classic comedy-western starring 2 conservative Republican/Roman Catholic movie legends: manly Gary Cooper and lovely Loretta Young. In this western spoof that Cooper himself produced, he spoofs his own macho he-man cowboy image as a cowpoke who doesn't know how to handle a gun. He gets mistaken for an escaped outlaw killer and the fun begins. My favorite part is 9:58-13:44.

It’s a very enjoyable western-comedy, only marred by some weak back-projection scenes and studio interiors, giving it a sometimes claustrophobic feel.

Great film.

Along Came Jones
Ray Stevens

I plopped down in my easy chair and turned on Channel 2
A bad gunslinger called Salty Sam was chasin poor Sweet Sue
He trapped her in the old sawmill and said with an evil laugh,
If you don't give me the deed to your ranch I'll saw you all in half!
And then he grabbed her He tied her up
He turned on the bandsaw

Chorus:
And then along came Jones
Tall thin Jones
Slow-walkin Jones
Slow-talkin Jones
Along came long, lean, lanky Jones

Commercial came on, so I got up to get myself a snack
You shouldve seen what was goin on by the time that I got back
Down in the old abandoned mine, Sweet Sue was havin fits
That villain said, Give me the deed to your ranch Or I'll blow you all to bits!
And then he grabbed her
He tied her up
He lit the fuse to the dynamite

Chorus
I got so bugged I turned it off and turned on another show
But there was the same old shoot-em-up and the same old rodeo
Salty Sam was tryin to stuff Sweet Sue in a burlap sack
He said, If you don't give me the deed to your ranch I'm gonna throw you on the railroad tracks!
And then he grabbed her
He tied her up
He threw her on the railroad tracks
A train started comin

Chorus:

Thanks, have an list on old movies you like that worth looking over?

I like everything from “The Thin Man series” to most classical blockbusters. Love period pieces 1800’s and some good performed King Arther era time works. It doesn’t have to be action oriented, I can and often do like character movies. Comedies are ok, but slapstick humor and stupid lead characters don’t float my boat (hate stupid leads that make me want to shout at them to get a clue). Bob Hope may of been a great man, but I can’t sit though one of his movies. Favorite actor probable Jimmy Stewart, and any pretty faced lady.

Thanks Ref...This is a good but under appreciated movie. Gary Cooper is at his best as well as [Uncle Charlie}-William Demarest and Dan Duryea as the bad guy. Thanks. .....;
