Gene Kelly directs this occasionally funny western. Star power galore does not mean a top notch movie. John O'Hanlan(James Stewart) inherits a Texas landmark...well, its actually a popular whore house. Down on his luck O'Hanlan talks his good friend Harley Sullivan(Henry Fonda)to help him run it. Yes, there is some laughs; but this movie seems way beneath efforts and reputations of both Stewart and Fonda. Situational comedy just doesn't seem to be even par with the cast.
Stewart and Fonda work very well together. Others of note in the cast: Sue Ane Langdon, Shirley Jones, Dabbs Greer, Elaine Devry and Arch Johnson.
