Armed with a wry sense of humor and a straight-shooting sidearm, James Garner (Duel at Diablo) fights for peace, justice and fun in this outrageous, irreverent and very funny farce co-starring Joan Hackett (Will Penny), Walter Brennan (Rio Bravo), Harry Morgan (TV's M*A*S*H and Dragnet), Bruce Dern (Coming Home) and Jack Elam (Rio Lobo). Support Your Local Sheriff is sheer entertainment from start to finish - on his way to Australia, frontier opportunist Jason McCullough (Garner) stumbles into a small gold-rush town and decides to earn a little extra pocket money by accepting a temporary assignment as their sheriff. Happily applying himself to his new position, McCullough manages to turn the town derelict (Elam) into his deputy, outsmart the dreaded Danby clan (led by Brennan), and fend off the lusty advances of the mayor's daughter (Hackett) - all without breaking a sweat or dirtying his shiny black boots! Directed by western legend Burt Kennedy (Young Billy Young).
