Jimmy Stewart and Hank Fonda are as comfortable together in screen saddles as they have been in a friendship that goes back to 1932 and summer stock. Now the old cronies have teamed up again in The Cheyenne Social Club, a wonderfully outdated odyssey of bawdy innocence. True, the film is populated with more pasteboard characters than you could empty a pair of Colt Peacemakers at. There is not just one whore with a heart of gold, but six.
