The conversation between Jim Garner and Jack Elam is a perfect illustration of why Garner was so widely popular as a star. A combination of friendliness, intelligence, humor and wisdom. How I'd have loved to have had a conversation with him.
James Garner is a classic, in the same vein as the likes of Jimmy Stewart. An elegant man, from a more civilized age. Actors and actresses these days feel like children compared to the greats of old.
You do understand what an actor is right? You do understand that's not a conversation between Jim & Jack? It called a script and they were both in character...
@@Fifury161 And really great at delivering the dialog in that script. Writers write and actors act. And when you get two great actors like Elam and Garner it makes for a great scene.
"You stay on that side of the line and everything should work out fine." "WHAAAAT???" That is such a classic scene and perfectly acted. You can just feel Joe's disbelief.
I went to see this with my sisters around noon. We told mom how good it was and went to see it again later. We all told dad when he got home from work how good it was so we went to see it again. So, I saw it the first three times in one day (at 8 or 9yrs old). I still watch it annually (or maybe more) because it is just too good not to. That adds up to 50+ times I have seen this movie and I do not regret a single watch. To the whole cast and crew I say thank you for making one of the greatest comedies ever
My grandpa, may he rest in peace, loved watching Jack Elam in westerns. He always called him "Ol' Bug Eyes", and everyone in the family knew exactly who he was talking about when he said it.
Why did they ever stop making movies like this? Funny, clean, irreverent and clever... James Garner was a talented actor. He could carry a movie like this effortlessly...
Because we don't have producers, writers, directors and actors like that anymore. Well, maybe some of each category, but finding them and getting them together? Very unlikely.

@@grf15 There's more choice on Western Comedies, than people think. Blazing Saddles, Support Your Local Sheriff, Support Your Local Gun Fighter, The Apple Dumpling Gang, The Frisco Kid, Maverick, Wild Wild West, Wagons East, Three Amigos, Goin' South, A Million Ways to Die in the West, The Shakiest Gun in the West, and City Slickers, are some I can remember.
"Why that must've saved the life of whatever man was wearing that star." "Well it sure would've if it hadn't been for all them other bullets flying in from everywhere."
I love the scene where Joe tells his pop "Well, he lies to me about whether or not my guns' got bullets in it" and his dad is like "WHAT???" This is such a great and funny movie!
I took care of my great grandmother once a week so she could stay in her own house once a week and do errands around town. I used to watch old westerns with her because those were here favorite. She died a few months ago and I still miss her. Getting this in my recommended brought nice memories.
"... that's the poor fella who crossed the line earlier today" James.....gotta love him. I have no idea how many times I watched all the Rockford files and movies
Yeah, I vaguely remember earlier in the movie him dripping the red paint all over that spot. Not sure why but made sense later. Has been several decades since I’ve seen this so if I’m remembering it wrong you can correct me. Edit; ok, I just noticed it’s been 2 years since your post, you’ve probably forgotten about it. No worries.
I have always loved this movie. James Garner and Jack Elam worked so well on the Support Your Local ........ movies. Bruce Dern was just right for the part too.
My favourite film of all time. How to clean up a lawless town without getting stressed whilst always being on the way to Australia and suffering from terminal niceness. Genius!
To add my agreement with the others, I love this movie. James Garner and the entire cast is perfect. Many of the actors are from the golden age of westerns 30's thur the 50's.
@@justjrandomuser Well, it's "Support Your Local Sheriff". Everybody had so much fun making it that most of them got together again the next year to make "Support Your Local Gunfighter", which is available for free on RUclips. Too bad "Sheriff" isn't.
I loved watching the movie "Maverick" and trying to ID all the old timers in it. Another fun James Garner movie. Oh, and that other feller too I guess.
@@55Quirll When they fly off their saddles in the "jailbreak"....Gene Evans tries to help dad and is slapped away". That movie was comic genius. I got to meet Garner when I was a busboy in Rancho Bernardo in 74'. Just a sweetheart of a man. Gene keeps saying "who?" when Brennen say's HE'S REALLY DONE IT NOW". Love it!
Elam: (excitedly) "I was raised up in Indiana!" Garner: "Well, that could be either good, or bad." Being from Indiana originally, this makes perfect sense. Extra hilarious if yer a Hoosier.
Support You Local Sheriff was one I watched with dad in the early 80s. Made the year I was born actually. Great great movie. And its really nice to see Elam play the good guy.
Support Your Local Sheriff and Support Your Local Gunfighter are both great Movies. I never get tired watching them, I always like the 60 40 conversation.
Remember what the sheriff says: "No more shooting until the sun goes down" Random dude: "Was that what the sheriff's said?" Bartender: "Close enough" Lol
When I was a kid my dad came home with this movie from the rental store. He made us kids sit down and watch it. We were mad none of us wanted to see it. We laughed so hard through the whole movie. Been one of my favs ever since.
This is an all-time underrated classic. Only James Garner, with his underrated acting, & the wonderful Jack Elam , could have pulled this off ! -----------------Witty -------------well done, & a classic.---------------------------WolfSky9
Bruce Dern had a great line in Down periscope. " I don't think it's good policy for the navy to turn over a billion dollar's worth of equipment to a man who has welcome abroad tattooed on his penis ".
Great movies, Gunfighter and Sheriff. Loved him and Dick van Dyke in a movie that I think was called The Art of Love. Fine actor and a pretty good person from what I've heard. His Jim Rockford was a staple for the wife and I back in the day. Classic. James (Jimbo, according to Lt Becker) finally did make it "downunder" as will we all. Thank you, Mr. Garner. You brought a lot of joy.
Garner and Elam was a funny duo...I like how he faked the guy out telling him he took all the bullets out then to rub it in Unloaded it infront of him after he goes back inside HAHAHA!
In short time he became one of the most memorable supporting players in Hollywood, thanks not only to his near-demented screen persona but also to an out-of-kilter left eye, sightless from a childhood fight.
I always liked this movie! It was one of the few westerns made in the 60s and as a result a lot of the old actors who needed work got a job. Bruce Dern playing Joe in a rare comedy role, Jack Elam , Henry Morgan, and a host of other character actors who would soon find work in non-westerns appreciated the chance to show off their talents.
Shoobee63: A character he also played on "The Real McCoys" TV show! The cranky but wise old man, a character act which he started playing while in his 40s! Can you imagine this man singing and dancing on Broadway with Jimmy Durante?
This movie still is the best 90 minutes you can spend just smiling and laughing the whole way through ! James Garner at his best with some of the best character actors in the business just having a high old time !
The "Support Your Local...." movies were insanely funny. Just about the funniest westerns until "Blazing Saddles" came out. Jack Elam is one of the best "heavies" in the movies, and his comedy work is made even funnier because of all the years he was the bad, BAD guy.
Blazing saddles was terrible.......they went for low hanging fruit. The Support your Local's were extremely well written and acted and intelligent humor.
“How come you ain’t got a reputation?” “What would I want with a reputation? That’s a good way to get yourself killed! Now you just go on practicing while I put Joe back in jail.” 😂 😂 😂
Love this movie as well as “Support Your Local Gunfighter”. Maybe the two best comedy westerns ever. James Garner was a great actor, men like him can’t be replaced.
Best western spoof and one of the funniest movies, period. Always a pleasure to watch James Garner, but the whole cast here was exquisite--and this was the first time i'd ever seen Jack Elam as a nice (and very funny) guy. And Bruce Dern! "Do I have to listen to him? He ain't nothing but the town character!" Has anyone posted the scene featuring Garner and Harry Morgan where they discuss the "departing" of Prudie's mother? Priceless stuff.
I remember when I first saw this movie about 40 years ago or so with my dad. I'm not exactly sure what year it was, but I was a kid at the time. My dad was very serious all the time. Except when he watched this movie. He laughed and laughed so hard during this movie, he could barely breathe. I've never scene him laugh so hard. It was so fun to see him laugh like that, because he was such a serious man at home. I'd never scene him laugh like that before, or since, that day. I'll always remember this movie for that.
Around this same time when James Garner and Bruce Dern made this movie "Support your Local Sheriff" Bruce Dern also made Hang Em High with Clint Eastwood.
Dern usually played the villain, but his scariest role was "longhair" in "The Cowboys". I saw that on TV at the age of 6 and he gave me nightmares. Plus he's maybe the only onscreen character to kill the Duke!

"Support Your Local Sheriff" is one of the best comedies ever made. I love it. This makes me want to watch it again.
Along with Support your local gunfighter
@@charlesedge2429I love this movie but never cared for Support Your Local Gunfighter, to each his own though.
"Well I was in a hurry to save your life, I wasn't trying to group my shots..." - that's got to be one of the funniest lines ever spoke in a western.
I actually laughed out loud at that line.
Really Ace Funny Western Film.
Well if he’d been 5 feet further away...he would have missed...!
Great comeback...
That movie was loaded with great lines.

The great Jack Elam said of all the many movies he was in, this was his favourite. What a guy!
My grandpa, may he rest in peace, loved watching Jack Elam in westerns. He always called him "Ol' Bug Eyes", and everyone in the family knew exactly who he was talking about when he said it.
Always played the bad guy in his earlier films then moved to more comedic roles like this and the doctor in cannonball run. Hilarious
And he was in some damn good movies: Vera Cruz, Gunfight at the OK Corral, Once Upon a Time in the West...
... the doctor in Cannonball Run.
I love that movie. So much fun. University of Rangoon, wasn't it?
Sheriff, Gunfighter and Once Upon a Time in the West make for a great Jack Elam film festival!
Kansas City Confidential
Support You Local Sheriff Great Movie. James Garner was such a great Actor made everything seem easy.
Why did they ever stop making movies like this? Funny, clean, irreverent and clever... James Garner was a talented actor. He could carry a movie like this effortlessly...
Probably because the two or three knock-offs that followed this one weren't nearly as good. ;)
because spaghetti western was a thing , the people back then wanted something gretty , and the hero with a questionable moral compass .
Because we don't have producers, writers, directors and actors like that anymore. Well, maybe some of each category, but finding them and getting them together? Very unlikely.
Because it was a Three Picture Deal. Says so in the credits. Really. It was the name of the production company.

Kind of like the movie where Jack was killed by Harmonica. In the opening. Along with Woody Strode and someone I don't remember. They got spaghetti sauce all over them.
That was after about ten minutes of
squeal
squeal
close of Jack's eyes
squeal
another closeup

Then three character actors get shot.

Still one of the greatest westerns ever.
Totally agree with you I saw this film a few years ago loved it . Brilliant acting by all
One of the funniest and best of James Garner movies ever. Have it on dvd. He is constantly on his way to Australia. Hilarious.
MAVERICK was funny as hell too , with Jody Foster and Mel Gibson!
possibly THE greatest of all western comedies
between this movie and the trinity movies....
It's great, but greater than Blazing Saddles? I don't think so.
Not a lot to choose from, but I agree. Garner was great!

Totally agree. It is so much fun to see Dern playing a comedic role for a change.
Yes, and everyone is a comedian, even Walter Brennan who's trying to be serious about taking out the Sheriff 👍😁

Elam: (excitedly) "I was raised up in Indiana!"

Like the way these guys are downright forthright and honest with each other.
Loved Bruce Dern in the SiFi film "Silent Running".
Agreed! A rare role as a good guy and as lead.
He was better in this, and that is saying a lot.
Bruce Dern had a great line in Down periscope. " I don't think it's good policy for the navy to turn over a billion dollar's worth of equipment to a man who has welcome abroad tattooed on his penis ".
My favorite Bruce Dern movie will probably always be "The 'Burbs." Loved his performance in that one. =)
Great film! Silent Running is classic
"An' he lies to me about whether my gun is loaded!"
"He stuck his finger in the end of your WHAT??"
This is one of those movies that is just a joy to watch. One of those that is easy to watch and not think when sick.
One of my favorite westerns.
My dad loves these movies. He made me watch this recently (even though I didn't want to ) with him and I LOVED it!!!
Great movies, Gunfighter and Sheriff. Loved him and Dick van Dyke in a movie that I think was called The Art of Love. Fine actor and a pretty good person from what I've heard.

Garner and Elam was a funny duo...I like how he faked the guy out telling him he took all the bullets out then to rub it in Unloaded it infront of him after he goes back inside HAHAHA!
And the callback to that in Unforgiven, when Little Bill did take 1 bullet out of English Bob's gun. And in the prison.
One of those movies that you could watch more than once and not get tired of it. Loved it.
This has some of the most pleasant dialogue I've heard in a movie in a long while
FUN FACT: Elam had walleye because in a childhood fight he had a pencil stuck in that eye, damaging the nerves that held the eye aligned.
That's awesome!
Thats one hell of a child fight. o.0
In short time he became one of the most memorable supporting players in Hollywood, thanks not only to his near-demented screen persona but also to an out-of-kilter left eye, sightless from a childhood fight.

Bruce Dern could play a bad guy, a good guy, and a somewhere in-between guy. Damn, we had some pretty good movies in the sixties.
Walter Brennan having a great time spoofing his "Ike Clanton" role from "My Darling Clementine" 20 years earlier :-)
Shoobee63: A character he also played on "The Real McCoys" TV show! The cranky but wise old man, a character act which he started playing while in his 40s! Can you imagine this man singing and dancing on Broadway with Jimmy Durante?

The "Support Your Local...." movies were insanely funny. Just about the funniest westerns until "Blazing Saddles" came out. Jack Elam is one of the best "heavies" in the movies, and his comedy work is made even funnier because of all the years he was the bad, BAD guy.
Kenny Anderson He was the town character.
Loved James Gardner in this and maverick tv show.
Remembered the Movie details after seeing this Clip
Blazing saddles was terrible.......they went for low hanging fruit. The Support your Local's were extremely well written and acted and intelligent humor.
Book Snake One was 'Sheriff', the other was 'Gunfighter'. Almost the same cast but not considered sequels.
Jake Elam was my favourite goody/baddie/character. Brilliant.
James Garner, Bruce Dern, Jack Elam, Walter Brennan - one of my favorite movies of all time.
A fantastic movie that is just as good today as the day it hit the theaters.
James Garner, Bruce Dern ,Jack Elam a great movie
One of several great scenes of this classic movie. One of my favorites. Dont make them this great anymore. Love the cast.
James Gardner was awesome ,but so was jack Elam, Walter Brennan,Bruce dern Harry Morgan
"Remember what the sheriff said, no more shootin' 'til the sun goes down!"
Is that what he said.
That's close enuf brother, drinks are on the house.

I remember when I first saw this movie about 40 years ago or so with my dad. I'm not exactly sure what year it was, but I was a kid at the time. My dad was very serious all the time. Except when he watched this movie. He laughed and laughed so hard during this movie, he could barely breathe. I've never scene him laugh so hard. It was so fun to see him laugh like that, because he was such a serious man at home. I'd never scene him laugh like that before, or since, that day. I'll always remember this movie for that.
Great movie
Jack Elam is gold in this movie. Garner too. Really all of them. Miss movies like this.
Around this same time when James Garner and Bruce Dern made this movie "Support your Local Sheriff" Bruce Dern also made Hang Em High with Clint Eastwood.
I saw an interview where Bruce said he had the most fun doing this movie. He loved working with Garner and director Burt Kennedy.
and then a couple years after this movie he made The Cowboys with John Wayne and for a while he became the most hated man in America
Bruce Dern=Great Actor!
His daughter's not too bad either.
Den was also great in THE COWBOYS
I still never recognize him, then again, I only remember him from Django Unchained, Nebraska, and The Hateful Eight.
Dern usually played the villain, but his scariest role was "longhair" in "The Cowboys". I saw that on TV at the age of 6 and he gave me nightmares. Plus he's maybe the only onscreen character to kill the Duke!
Except when he KILLED JOHN WAYNE! (Was that The Cowboys?) 😎
I love the way Bruce Dern holds out his hands to be cuffed and drops his head like a pouting little boy. Wonderful bit of acting.
Garner, Elam Dern, three of the great ones, one of the funniest clips I ever saw .
Thank You cheers from Pennsylvania...Hubby and I laugh till we cry .....love this movie...Jail with no bars ......👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
One of my favorite western comedies. It was the first of a line leading to 'Blazing Saddles'!!
James Garner and Jack Elam in the same scene... if we achieve NOTHING ELSE as a species - at least we achieved that
Amen!!
They did 2 movies together I do believe.
@@Ringking-ws7bz Yep, the second was Support your local Gunfighter.
@@55Quirll Support Your Local Sheriff was better it had Walter Brennan as a heel
@@Ringking-ws7bz True, there were similar actors in Gun Fighter, Jack Elam, Harry Morgan but not as funny though enjoyable 😉
"I'm from Indiana." "well, that could be good and bad."
How do you diffuse a murderously tense situation in the Old West?
Five Words:
"Drinks are on the House!"
That didn't work in Goodfellas.
