Jason Robards shines in one of his most touching and humorous performances, and David Warner is memorable as a sinning preacher man.

Sam Peckinpah followed The Wild Bunch with this intimate, eccentric, appealing 1970 comedy, which treats many of the same themes in a soft, regretful mode.

Peckinpah's gentlest, boldest, and perhaps most likable film to date.

Not a hit at the box office, it remains one of his finest efforts, funny, touching and never mawkishly sentimental.
