Gentility and blood sport are old friends, but the mix of the wealthy and the rustic at Armstrong Ranch that weekend was exceptional. Tobin's grandfather started the ranch on family land in 1882, after he won a $4,000 bounty for capturing outlaw John Wesley Hardin. The Vice President was hunting with not only his friend Whittington, who has advised Texas Governors and plays a monthly card game with the likes of a retired state supreme court justice, but also Pamela Pitzer Willeford, the ambassador to Switzerland.

Rockford was a classic '70s outlaw antihero: a roguish, check-bouncing ex-con (wrongly convicted) who lived in a trailer and was nearly as great a pain to the cops as to the crooks he nabbed. The cases and car chases were not anything special; Rockford's raffish sense of humor and ability to fast-talk his way out of any jam were. Garner's insouciance bursts off the screen like a Pontiac Firebird flying...
