Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean would be my pick. Funniest western ever made.

"Harper." He drives a 356 beater. He(or someone) drove it down an embankment during a chase scene. IIRC.

"Hombre" is a favorite - some classic lines.... Nearly as good as Cool Hand Luke

I sat down with my Dad and watched 'The Sting' two weeks ago. He doesn't recall ever seeing it before which I couldn't believe!

I LOVE The Sting -- one of the best movies ever. Didn't it win something like 7 Oscars?

I don't know which movie it was (I only saw an excerpt), but PLN was an old judge or something like that. At one point he was getting in bed with a woman & he still had his cowboy boots on. The woman asked why he had his boots on & he replied something like, "Traction!". Funny stuff. Perhaps someone knows the movie & the exact quote.

I like the movie too. Great story and I love the complicated scheme. I still can't believe my Dad had never seen it.

I don't know if it's the movie you saw but I seem to recall a line like that in 'Slap Shot' which is a highly entertaining movie.
