Quote of the Day: Support the Local Sheriff - Burt Kennedy (1969)

"He strikes me as bein' a lonely man."
"Lonely? Danby? Why he's a mean, no-good lowdown bushwhacker!"
"Well, there you see? No wonder he's lonely."

When I was a kid, sometimes we didn't have a TV, but that was okay. My dad was a pastor and he would take home the church's film-projector and a screen. Our library rented out films on reels. We would all shut off the lights and watch "Bye-Bye Birdie," "The Sound of Music," "Fiddler on the Roof," all the Laurel and Hardy you could watch, and best of all, "Support Your Local Sheriff."

Seeing as how this movie was one of my favorites growing up and seeing as how it's full of great quotes and nonsense, expect to see the film here again.
