If you loved Paint Your Wagon, try The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Comedy / Western territory. If that's the register that drew you to Paint Your Wagon, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean is

This frontier justice comic seems to believe its own saloon-law is the law of the land. In a lawless patch of Texas, a flamboyant judge turns his courtroom into a one-man town hall, meting out sentences with a sense of theater no statute ever required. Admittedly it runs a little long for a hanging judge.
