Dustin Hoffman is a Wild West schlemiel accompanied by a funky guitar through a Jerry Lewis-Peter Sellers-type Man of a Thousand Faces performance. Everything about this debunking of frontier mythology is extremely broad -- the acting, the humor, the satirical targets, and the balanced, bowl-shaped, conventionally Romantic landscapes. Director Arthur Penn piles on all varieties of material, from a childlike lampoon of a gunslinger to an interracial romance to a blood-squirting massacre of Indians. It's intended to be a rollercoaster experience but it's more like a sinking ship. (1970) — Duncan Shepherd
