...doors are not the only items that swing in the film's Arizona saloon. In the background, steamy Tornado Lou (Veta Fialova) belts out her numbers in between brawls; in the foreground, the archvillains, Horace and Doug Badman, discover that they are brothers when they spot moles the size of silver dollars on each other's wrists. Enter Winifred Goodman, a piquant blonde who lectures the customers on the evils of drink. She is met with a shower of catcalls and booze. But then appears Lemonade Joe, played by Karel Fiala, an actor who looks like a reincarnation...
...because his drink is pure-Kola Loca Lemonade, for which he is Western sales representative. Though a deadly shot, he aims mainly for a greater share of the market by getting endorsements from notorious gunslingers. Lou and Winifred start lowering their eyes and necklines in his direction, but the Badman brothers start raising hell. In a grand-horse-opera finale, everyone gets plugged and expires in a heap on boot hill. Infusions of Kola Loca magically resurrect them all, whereupon Joe, Horace, Doug and Lou discover that they all have matching wrist moles the size of a silver dollar...
...badman (Aldo Ray) is the worst wrongo since Johnny Ringo.

Anxious only to rebuild Hard Times and make it a good place for business, he gets...

While waiting out a thunderstorm at a desolate western whistlestop, three men fall to reminiscing about all the sex and sinnin' that came out at a badman's trial for murder. Seems a Southern dandy (Laurence Harvey) and his wife (Claire Bloom) had been lured into a woodsy glen by a notorious Mexican bandit (Newman), who bound the husband to a tree and then raped the wife. Later, the husband was found dead and the case came...
McLintock. A John Wayne western used to be as rigidly formalized as a Japanese No drama: sheriff v. badman, farmer v. cowman and all that. This latest epic shovels up songs, slapstick, civic spirit and a drawing room comedy cut to the size of a range war. It is dedicated to the proposition that where there's a will, there's a Wayne, or even several of them. McLintock is produced by Son Michael, 29, casts Daughter Aissa, 7, in a minor role, and features Heir Apparent Patrick Wayne...
