The Perfect Man (100%)

Plot: James Garner returns for this pseudosequel to Support Your Local Sheriff, this time as a gigolo con man mistaken for a legendary killer. Escaping matrimonial entanglements, he lands in the town...( read more  read more... ) of Purgatory in the midst of a raging war between gold miners racing for the mother lode. In a play right out of Maverick, he quickly casts drifter Jack Elam into the gunfighter role and names himself the man's agent, selling his services to the highest bidder and pocketing a sizable commission. Garner double-talks his way through one deal after another with a wink and a smile while Elam growls and swaggers and rolls his eyes, playacting the role of the cold-blooded gunslinger like a wild-eyed clown. Suzanne Pleshette shoots up the town as Garner's romantic interest, a tomboy in buckskin with an itchy trigger finger and lousy aim, and Chuck Conners walks tall as the real bald-as-a-billiard-ball killer. Apart from the tongue-in-cheek tone and returning cast members (Elam, Harry Morgan, Henry Jones, and Gene Evans are among the familiar faces joining Garner), the film has little in common with Sheriff and never quite recaptures the clever twists and low-key hilarity, but this is a cast who knows how to deliver a gag, and Kennedy's laid-back direction keeps an even, affectionately spoofing tone throughout. --Sean Axmaker

    Great western and comedy movie. "Support Your Local Gunfighter" long with "Support Your Local Sheriff" are great western and comedy movies. James Garner is great in this movie as was Suzanne Pleshette, Jack Elam, Henry Morgan, and John Dehner. James Garner plays a chacter not to much different from than the he plays as in the TV show "Maverick". The movie is zany and funny. I enjoy this movie every times I watch the movie.
    "Support Your Local Gunfighter" is movie that fun to whatch and enjoy with whole family.

    Caught this on TMC the other night, and was really loved it. A very funny western spoof with a lot of heart.

    Not nearly as good as Support Your Local Sherriff, the roles weren't even the same, but still decent.
