The Ballad of Cable Hogue (1970)

 

The Ballad of Cable Hogue is a 1970 American Technicolor Western comedy film directed by Sam Peckinpah and starring Jason Robards, Stella Stevens and David Warner

   

Set in the Arizona desert during a period when the frontier was closing, the film follows three years in the life of a failed prospector

While unmistakably a Western, the movie is unconventional for the genre and for the director

It contains only a few brief scenes of violence and gunplay, relying more on a subtly crafted story that could better be characterized as comedic in nature
