MORE ABOUT 'SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL SHERIFF'
What this town needs is a little law and order! James Garner, playing the charming drifter Jason McCullough in Support Your Local Sheriff!, becomes the unlikely sheriff of Calendar, Colorado, a wild gold rush town. With nothing but wit, improvisation, and a finger pointed like a gun, McCullough faces off against the notorious Danby family, led by Pa Danby (Walter Brennan) and his hot-headed son Joe (Bruce Dern). Aided by his bumbling deputy Prudy Perkins (Jack Elam) and winning the heart of Prudy's daughter (Joan Hackett), McCullough brings his own brand of justice to the frontier.
Directed by Burt Kennedy and starring James Garner, Joan Hackett, Walter Brennan, Harry Morgan, Jack Elam, and Bruce Dern, 'Support Your Local Sheriff!' is a delightful Western parody that perfectly balances comedy with classic frontier action. Watch this movie with a free online trivia game!
