The Man With No Pitch (i'm sorry)

Western comedy musical just don't go together. I need to see Clint kicking ass not singing for joy.

so bizarre that it gets points.

Not fond of musicals and it is very strange to see Clint in one,however this is a very funny and most enjoyable film.

I think that the world would be a better place if everyone saw Lee Marvin and Clint Eastwood singing together. Since this movie is the only place that you can get such a marvelous collaboration, everyone must watch it. At least see it to the intermission, because this puppy is unnaturally long. If you liked it up until then, you'll like the rest. Meh!

Ugh! A wild misfire of a musical that gets a 10 from me only for its value as high camp. Clint Eastwood sings? Believe it. It's ugly.

By far my favorite Comedy, Musical, Western. Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin sharing a wife, wow! "I was born under a wandering star..." Classic! Everyone should see this film at least once, you'll gain new respect for Eastwood.

...with blood, I bet!

My reaction was pretty similar to that of the Simpson's. Homer: Agh! They're singing! They're singing, Marge! Why aren't they killing each other? Bart: Yeah, their guns are right there. Homer: Wait, wait, wait: here comes Lee Marvin. Thank God. He's always drunk and violent. Homer: [ejects tape] Ooh, why did they have to ruin a perfectly serviceable wagon story with all that fruity singing?

Chayefsky certainly does seem [partly] at work here, everything is so extraordinarily unusual - almost exists in its own parallel reality where Lee Marvin & Clint Eastwood are trying to be passed off as some comedic/musical talent [Marvin is the superior] & traditional conventions are an afterthought, if anything. The song's were kind of blah but I have a strange appreciation for this that I can't quite understand, definitely ambitious and well made, the lengthy run was barely a deterrent.
