The first time I saw this was in 1967 in Vietnam. I never saw a James Colburn movie before. I still believe this is his best followed by "The President's Analyst."
Roger Miller makes the movie with his tunes and "Do unto others before they do it unto you."
Here is your chance (icky) to see Bruce Dern and Carroll O'Connor naked together. After Roger Miller's singing, I think Lewton Cole's (James Colburn) amorality is what makes the movie. Be sure to look for Fifi LaFlamme
Several stories overlap and interweave. MSgt. Henry J. Foggers (Claude Akins) is left alone in charge of the army's gold while the rest of the army is in war games. He with the help of a few acquaintances including a shoemaker deposited the gold in a safer place.
Lewton Cole is a cheap not so scruples gambler who find a map on a 20-dollar bill. Will, it cost him his life? We also see gunfights, houses of ill repute, jails, bandits, and some very fine horses.
We are left with the question of "Do we value gold too much?"
