"Highly entertaining! A who's who of comedy western players!" -Boxoffice
The wild west just got wilder...and a whole lot wackier! James Garner is back in the saddle again in Support Your Local Gunfighter, a powder-keg of laughs in which the most dangerous gunslinger in the west isn't the fastest...but the funniest!
Gigolo con-man Latigo Smith (Garner) needs to get something off his chest - the tattooed name of his most recent ex-fiance. But while he's waiting for the local doctor to sober up and perform the operation, Smith overhears that local mining baron Taylor Baton (Harry Morgan) is looking to shut down his mining competition by hiring the notorious gunman, Swifty Morgan. Seizing the opportunity for an easy con, Smith passes off a reprobate cow-hand (Jack Elam) as the dreaded Swifty, and pockets the cash. Bankroll in hand, he plans to head for the hills...until he falls for Barton's pistol-packin' daughter, Patience (Suzanne Pleshette). But when the real Swifty shows up looking for blood, Smith comes up with an outrageous scheme to save his hide, stop the mining feud and win over Patience -- and it might just work...if it doesn't blow up the entire town!

A classic western - 3.5 out of 5 (3/19/2001)
When I first picked up "Support Your Local Gunfighter", I assumed it was the
typical "it worked once" kind of thing that we usually see in Hollywood. I
was also mistaken in thinking I had seen the film before.
As usual, I was wrong on both counts.
I had never seen the film before which doesn't really matter. What does
matter is that the film is quite different from the "Support Your local
Sheriff" film. This film is a little darker in both mood and plot, and
despite the G rating, th
