PLOT (Wikipedia): Jesse W. Haywood (Don Knotts) graduates from dental school in Philadelphia in 1870 and goes west to become a frontier dentist. As a "city slicker", he finds himself bungling in a new environment.
On his way west, the stagecoach is held up and robbed by two masked bandits. A posse catches one of them, Penelope "Bad Penny" Cushing (Barbara Rhoades).
Facing prison, Penelope is offered a pardon if she will track down a ring of gun smugglers that also involves a local Indian tribe. Because the wagon train she plans to accompany will not permit single women to join, she tricks Haywood into a sham marriage as a disguise.
Jesse, excited for his wedding night and not realizing the sham of his marriage, looks for Penelope who is investigating the crates of "bibles" the preacher and his minion have in their tent. Jesse startled Penelope who alerts the camp. Her investigation foiled, she goes to bed dragging along her bungling husband.
As the wagon train draws near the town, Indians attack. As Jesse fumbles with his six shooter, Penelope expertly shoots the attackers. Jesse, believing he was responsible is proud of his accomplishment and is treated as a hero by the wagon train and the entire town that hears of his deeds.
The Preacher and his minion, believing Jesse to be the undercover federal agent, hires the local outlaw Arnold the Kid to challenge Jesse to a gunfight. In the yard as Jesse practices for his gunfight, Penelope meets with her contact in town. Around the corner, Arnold listens for Jesse to use up his rounds and after the sixth shot challenges Jesse, even offering him the first shot. Penelope, feeling pity for Jesse, kills Arnold from the window.
Haywood inadvertently becomes the legendary "Doc the Heywood" after he guns down "Arnold the Kid" and performs other exploits (all with covert assistance from Penny).
Later at night as Penelope leaves to search the church where the Preacher resides, Jesse confronts her demanding where she is going. Penelope explains her situation and Jesse offers his help believing himself to be a crack shot. Penelope, not wanting Jesse to hurt himself, tells him the truth about her assistance on the wagon train and with Arnold. Penelope leaves, apologizing to Jesse, who is now heartbroken.
Penelope investigates the church and is kidnapped by the Preacher and his minion, who take her to the Indian village outside of town. Meanwhile, Jesse walks into the saloon and admits the truth of his deeds to the town...who now find him a joke. As a drunken Jesse stumbles out of the saloon he sees Penelope being taken out of town by the Preacher. Jesse follows them to the Indian village to save Penelope.
In disguise as a Squaw, Jesse maneuvers around the village and frees Penelope suggesting they wait for the entire village to get even more drunk. Eventually Jesse is discovered and the Preacher and his Minion challenge Jesse to a gunfight. Jesse is confidant as he knows Penelope is armed and ready in the shadows. As Penelope sets her sight she is grabbed by two marshals who sneaked into the village to save her. Two gun shots rang out and Penelope, crestfallen, leaves the village. Jesse however stands victorious with the Preacher and his minion shot dead. Jesse is surrounded by the rest of the village and appears doomed.
Back at the town, the gates are barred and the townspeople prepare for a battle. To everyone's surprise Jesse rides with the Chief at his side and the remainder of the tribe behind them. Jesse has made peace with the Chief, using his dentistry skills to replace his missing teeth and orders him a rare steak. Jesse and Penelope reunite and hug. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Wow, this was made 51 years ago. I had just finished my 4 years in the Marine Corps. I bought the movie on VHS and my son and I watched it when he was in high school. It's still hilarious because of Don Knott's great comedy talent.
Semper Fi, 72-76

I enlisted 50 yrs ago! 72-78
Oorah!
I was high school 72-76
I wasn't born till 72
For as long as I live, I will always love Don Knotts and his movies! RIP Mr. Knotts!
Don Knotts was a genius. Probably one of the greatest of my childhood...
nobody has mentioned it, but if my memory serves me correctly, I do not remember one profane remark? Remarkable isnt it? We can laugh at a G rated movie, which at the time meant everybody could see it.
Don Knotts used facial expressions to get comical reactions just like the late Ted Knight.
I can't bloody say enough about how wonderful this move is, Don Knots is an American legend in every sense of the word. He's the best comedic actor from before comedic acting was a thing...he defined at least 2 decades of comedy with out even trying to be funny. The man will always be a true legend and a complete bloody genius.!!!
I was lucky enough to see it in an old, 20s era theater in Lake Canandaigua New York. I was five, and the crowd was so rowdy that the film had to be stopped five times. Jerks or throwing stuff at the screen and scaring the hell out of me. I bet that poor Usher still has nightmares about that evening! If he is still alive()
In real life I believe Don was a ladies man..read it somewhere..
The opening scene is priceless. Lol
This movie is full of good clean family comedy!
OL Don was one our own Alabama Natives to
@@jeffschaffer4994 this was way after the 20s man idk if that's what you meant in the comment or what maybe another movie idk this was 1960s era maybe early 70s even hell it's past the Technicolor days even which wasn't bad for the time those cameras were the size of a gun on a DestroyeR to needed a hydraulic mast just to pan them around even
The Ghost and Mr Chicken, The love God, The Reluctant Astronaut etc. are pure classics. The film quality of pictures made from 1965 to 1969 are remarkable.
Peter Grimshaw I personally love Jerry. It just depends on the person I guess.
Actually, the quality of movies was SO bad at the time that the Congress had to intervene and separate the film studios from the TV studios.
Remember back in the 1970’s watching these kind of movies on a Saturday night? Great days back then.
Happy we could help you reminisce! Thanks for watching. ✌📺📼
@@GrjngoWesternMovies I became your latest subscriber.
Don knotts is a part of my childhood, he was one of a kind
I can remember the day i saw this i was 4 and about 6 inches away from the screen they played it on tv
Don knotts was a comic genius
He is good actor 👏
Andy Griffith was pissed Don was winning all the Emmy's, so he told him he wasn't continuing the show. Knotts got ties up with others projects, no more Barney Fife.
Mine to I will be 60 soon.
I remember my dad taking me and a friend to watch this at the drive in theater.
Still hilarious, they'll never be another
Don Knotts.
Carry on Cowboy is very much like this movie
Part of what makes this movie so funny is its musical score.
@@allang.2338 What about the supporting cast?
I remember seeing - The Incredible Mr. Limpett all the time as a little little kid on tv. Bewildering, What a strange script.
Man, I`m glad I wasn't old enough to take a girl to that drive-in imagine me foolin around while a don Knotts flick was on? By God, it`s UN-American
Amazing no bad language, no sexual content, funny & family friendly! My how the TV shows have changed over the decades and it hasn’t been for the good!
Good movie but uh all the wedding night references? Ya S content.
This was the last wholesome film ever produced.
Watched this movie when i was a kid now 2024 im 59 years old still watching this hilarious movie🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
This is great.
As a kid born in the 90s I'm glad I was exposed to the classics. Loved this show as when I was a kid and I still do
I was born in 86 but this type of shows was what I always watched.
As a kid born in the 40's, I have always found Don Knotts to be the quintessential comic
@@jimsheppard6726 When he was in Three's Company he teamed with the late John Ritter who had the same comedy style as he.
These poor kids now, every show is filled with gays and sex, no more wholesome shows or movies like this
Don Knotts held a natural key element to comedy..he was a pure genius comic
There will never be another.
Both he & John Larroquette won Best Supporting Emmys Awards.
He won 5 consecutive Emmys and then another Emmy when he came back to visit Mayberry. He was burned out playing Barney.. But don`t forget all of the people that say you`re the star you can make it big on your own. yeah like McLean Stevenson from MASH and Abe Vigoda who played Fish gave it a shot and that`s just about how fast they went off. The difference is like John Travolta and Denzel who left for the big screen stardom, money and Fame, I`ve heard there doing quite well.
I can remember watching the Don Knotts/Tim Conway movies in my grade school. Great memories
NO actors today even come close with talent like that!
Which is why, any movies from beyond 1990, don't quite fit the mark. Oldies and classics... that's the greatest
...how about Jason Statham, he's a very good actor in megadolon
Jim Carey 😂😅😮😅🎉
There will never be a man
As Good as Don Knots . He’s
The King 🤴! Grew up watching and still am .
Love this man !
Bollywood Comedian Keshto Mukherjee seems like a Twin Brother of Don Knotts
They dont make movies like this anymore.
Awesome flick. 😊
There's a reason they don't make movies like this anymore, but to each his own.
and this is one of them - try watching Bob Hope and Paleface (and Son of Paleface)
No, they make people like this instead! Simp world.
As a kid I saw this first in 1973 on a community police boys club camp which was on a farm set up as a recreation camp it had full facilities dormitories mess hall snack shop sports field and open air cinema and this was the movie we watched , there were 400 plus kids all watching a movie we had never seen and laughing our heads off... great memories 👍👍👍👍👍
I've loved Don Knotts since I first saw him as the nervously vibrating 'Man in the Street' on Steve Allen's Show.
This movie is a long-time favorite. I'm so glad I found it again. Was having a crap day, and Don instantly made me feel better.
RIP, darling man, and thanks so very much for the magic and memories.
I’m at the part where he got cheated by the shop owner. Don’s facial expressions are HILARIOUS, especially when he’s pissed off 😂
Has become my favorite western thanks to don.
One of my favorite actors and movies.
His movies with Tim Conway were just the best
Don't forget the magic with Tim Conway and Harvey Korman on the Carol Burnett show.
@@tonyarceneaux286 A lot of humor there, but I still love him with Don Knotts the best!
I loved this movie at a drive in as a child and have always loved to see it again through the years. Thanks for making it available. Don Knotts was always a favorite of mine.
Incredible how one single person can bring so much to so many.
Love it! Starting with lyrics in the opening song, "he came out west on a northbound train..., he's got a phony pony that was made in Japan..."🤣, and continuing right on thru the ending credits. Just a great movie all around!!
I like what his daughter had to say about her dad. One of the funniest ever and a great dad also.🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yeah his daughter was on Larry King there is a CZcams video on Don Knotts rememberance.
The Ghost and Mr. Chicken.
Don never made a bad movie.
I think you mean, 'he never made a different movie,.'
@@Labor_Jones oh yeah?!!!
Well! We'll just see about THAT now won't we?
@@GathKingLeppbertI I love Don Knott's movies, but even he (Don)I think he did say they were kind of all the same... at least the first 4 after Barney.
@@Labor_Jones my favorite Don Knotts film was The Incredible Mr. Limpett.
I was not ever a Deputy Fife fan because, well that was the most mealy mouthed character he ever played imo.
I enjoyed his astronaut one because I lived in Channelview Texas. When we came back from Panama the Canal Zone. Even though it was released in '64 we USAF dependants usually waited till it came out on tv, generally about 4 yrs after theatre premieres.
@@GathKingLeppbertI I think I was 11 when Limpett came out. The kids came out and back then you didn't have to leave the theater after the film... you could watch them over and over then. I was big film fan going to the movies 3 or 4 times a week and I wasn't even 10 yet.
Yes, the cartoon aspect on Don's acting in Limpett was arranged for the Fish not the actor... but
I i've laughed a bunch on this movie today (or now) it's been too long and can't remember them much, but even when I know the jokes I still laugh.
He was such a good actor everything that he did he was a convincing actor and the world should be proud of what he did the shakiest gun in the West I'm not talking about his TV I'm talking about mr. Limpet and everything that he did a true actor and he deserves the memory of his legacy for what he did I will always remember Don Knotts
Don Knots was one of a kind. Great actor! Nobody and I mean nobody can act more nervous than Don. What I've read about him in real life he was just the opposite the most layed back guy you'd ever meet.
You need to see don knot and Tim Conway together in funny movie they are the best lol
Who is the actress of Penelope ?
@@vogelfrau2425 Barbara Rhoades
I watched this, the other day; and needless to say, I enjoyed every minute of it! Classic Don Knotts! 🤗💝
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
That was the funniest dentist visit scene I've ever seen-- Don Knotts was such a natural in that role, great little movie, thx
I almost cried from laughter in that scene when the native was coming towards him and his gun fell apart while trying to reload.
Exactly! Although, it was his uncle’s during the civil war, so not super new...even for 1870
Don was one funny actor. Loved him in "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" and Andy Griffin.
It's spelt Andy Griffith
@@nathanfranco5963 Spelt?
@@Pashasmom1 spelled correctly.
I remember going to see this when I was a kid, I liked all of Don Knotts' movies! THX 4 the Memories Grjngo uploading it!
ILYCSM, PEACE OUT!
Absolutely priceless! Very funny I'm laughing more than I have in a very long time! Wonderful!
These movies were new when I was a little kid. They were in the theaters first. The Ghost and Mr. Chicken was my fave, this one a close second. Both movies are hilarious, glad I got to see them new.
Bless you, Grjngo, for Western movies entertainment!
Thank you for this. He was one of a kind. And a talent beyond time.
I think Don Knotts was one of the greats among so many others. I grew up with him too.
One of my all-time favorite comic Don Knotts movies I always get a copy on DVD to give my dentist thanks for posting! 😁
This one of the best western comedy movie ever 😂👏
This was a good movie. I got it on DVD, along with the movies the reluctant astronaut, the ghost and Mr chicken, and how to frame a figg. Rest in peace Mr Don Knotts and the other departed cast and crew of this movie.
1:00
Horrible name.
I have that same DVD set, but my copy had “The Love God?” Instead of “How to Frame a Figg”.
Movie takes me back to happy times
He is so hilarious and such entertainment fun from beginning to end. Laughter is the best medicine.
Thanks CZcams for this movie. I love DonKnotts movies.
I was born in 1977 and grew up on don knotts movies and tv roles. I love don knotts and he is a true one of a kind nobody has ever done what he did as well as him. The lovable coward who by pure dumb luck always saves the day. I love every movie and show he was in but if i was forced to pick favorites. I believe his movie the private eyes with tim Conway is the funniest movie ever made and my number 2 pick would be the ghost and mr chicken thats brillant i worked at a newspaper for over 20 years and so my family used to tease me all the time by calling me scoop like they tease don in that movie. But all his movies are great and worth not only watching but owning. I own lots of his movies including this one but when i ran across it here i had to watch. Thanks for the upload don may be gone but will never be forgotten he is a true American classic and this is another one he is perfect for
Always enjoyed his work he did..he might ne gone but not forgotten..he's up there preparing the future comics who enter into this world when the time comes.
Nice thought
He won 5 consecutive Emmys as Barney and another one in a guest appearance when he came back to visit. This record will never be equaled never be eclipsed and one could say that Knotts could quite possibly be the funniest co-star ever he was certainly until his move to the big screen. FYI They didn't start with Don, as Andy Griffith tells it. He said he answered the phone and Don said. Could you use a deputy? Rest is history
The incredible Mr. Limpet is also a great movie. Watched for the first time in probably 35 years and loved it.
Don Knott's will always be Barney Fife to me bless his heart hilarious 😂
Knotts is funny without even trying. I still laugh, they're just not like this anymore. Thanks alot!
This may well be the greatest Western ever made. Note the somber realism displayed throughout and the haunting sense of danger and ever growing tension underscored by the ethereal musical score . . wait, oh, wrong movie.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Don Knotts. One of a kind. I truly miss him. Noticed how after the first kiss he was only looking at the "twins" and said, "Well now, we better get moving if we're going to make that wagon train."
I remember how my grandpa put this on everyday at 4:00pm for me and I always loved it.
I love watching anything with Don knotts he was so very funny a great actor RIP
Whenever I get the blues a shot of Don Knots is a sure cure. Thanks
Top notch entertainment !!!! Love me some Don Knotts
My parents used to watch this every week. I watched one day & for some reason it it stayed with me for 20+ years even the opening theme music I never forgot the words. I'm here watching it after last watching it 29 years ago.
Love Don Knots, loved all his movies and loved him on the Andy Griffith show! Miss the old movies and shows, that’s when tv was great!! He was also on the show threes company and he was so funny on that to.
I'm 61 and this is still so funny! I've had the DVD for years, along with 3 others that came in a Don Knotts movie pack - I watch them all the time! Still enjoy The Andy Griffith Show re-runs as well. 🤓
this is real nice, I enjoyed it...thank you !
The opening scene at dentist school when fought the woman trying to open her mouth was hilarious.
I agree, that could have come from the old silent film era. Brilliant.
Hysterical!
Yep, he's a wirey little son of a gun. Funny as heck. Just a natural 😂😅
We miss you Don Knotts!
Nov. 19, 2018----Back when family movies were made and Don Knotts made hit after hit.
Great movie. Thank you for your time and effort to put it on. 👍👍
Mr. Limpet was one of my favorites when I was a kid.
Awesome video thank you for uploading it
A great comedy and I have loved Barbara Rhoades for many years! Beautiful lady ❤!

Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Man oh Man what a entertaining movie! All of Don's work is something that is PURE GOLD 😂! The lay of the land is a GREAT 👍 way to break the ice 🧊! What a BEAUTIFUL RED HEAD to have your back. RIP DON and THANK YOU for ALL of YOUR WONDERFUL MEMORIES! YOUR FAN FOREVER
Wish Hollywood made stuff like this.
Classic western comedy. Knots was a comic genius.
I remember watching this movie as a child
Great movie, thanks for the upload.❤❤❤
Nice movie. His expressions are so funny. I watch Andy Griffith just for him.
This was one of my favorite comedy western movies and it was hilarious
I saw this in the theater when I was a kid. Great movie!
Saw this when it 1st came out and about a dozen times since and I still laugh. This and the Ghost and Mr. Chicken. Wasn't he just the best shot ever on the old Andy Griffith show?
My favorite show Andy Griffith brought me here barney is a legend
No time for Sargent's
This show is AMAZING! LOVE IT!
Really enjoyed watching this. Thank you 🤠
The Apple dumpling gang was a comedy classic to
Rest in ☮️ Don Knotts.
Always loved this movie
Soooo funny with good clean humor. Refreshing I don't have to quickly change channel if my kids
come in the room.
gotta love Don Knotts ... funniest stuff on the planet. He got past the sensors when he said grassy-ass LoL
Great fun! Thanks!
Don Knotts was a very unique man who was great. He's one of the few that can thank for how bad he was risen to make him such a good man. That if he was still alive. May he rest in peace. It's great how all have commented.
Classic slapstick Don Knotts!
Don Knott was a gifted actor who had style and can make me laugh.
Saw this when it first came out, Yes , I’m That Young 🇺🇸
I must have been born too late, most people who were young when these came out are always surprised I'm a major Don Knotts fan. He's the reason I watched Andy Griffith.
I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!
Love and enjoyed all Don Knotts movies
I’m 30 now me and my mom would watch all of don knotts movies when I was a kid and they all still are funny now
My son is 30 and I always watch his movies with my son too.
Between this and the Apple Dumpling Gang, these are my fav Westerns
Wow.... thank you so much for this...I needed something more...thank you 😘
Hey there! I came across your comment and I just had to reach out and say hi. Your perspective really caught my attention and I would love to get to know you better. Would you be interested in chatting sometime? Looking forward to hearing back from you!
Don Knotts Is The Best !!! Thank you for sharing =)
Classic Don Knott's scared stiff. Love 2 have seen him & Ernest P World do a movie together.
Hilarious opening scene!
