Brian Keith gave an excellent performance as a mumbling, grumpy, trigger happy, senile old cowboy. I must be senile (plumb loco) for watching this film. While Keith as Scandalous John ran around spouting his lunacy with over 60%/70% of the films dialogue and action, the other characters, where fleeting moving wallpaper. The plot what there was of it moved at a snail's pace. I would question the boast that this is a comedy. I watched it once but think I wasted and hour and a half of my life seeing it.
I think it is an interesting movie that tells what parts of his life he lived through. some people did not believe him of his incidents. A good movie that I liked.
