Along came Jones

[*~Mrs. Cooper ~*]

Riding into Payneville, easy-going cowboy Melody Jones is mistaken by the townsfolk for notorious gunman Monte Jarrad. The real Jarrad is hiding out wounded on the ranch of childhood sweetheart Cherry. She has the idea of sending Jones off to decoy the pursuing posse, but once he's met Cherry, Jones has other plans.

''Round and 'round ol' Joe Clark,
'round and 'round we're go'n
'round and 'round ol' Joe Clark
And a bye-bye Louis be gone
Ol' Joe Clark he had a wife
And she was 7 feet tall...
She slept with her head in the kitchen
And her big feet in the hall''

LOLOL, I adore this movie! It's so adorable!

Yep, that's a wonderful movie, even if it was something like a flop. He, for the first time produced a movie, and he was really not the right man for this job. But as Melody Jones.. he's adorable!!! One of the first movies with him that I saw... and still one of my favourites.

I know, at first when I saw he had directed it I was surprised, but I think it turned out great, so I won't complain.
He really was adorable.
*Sigh*
I can't get enough of this man in cowboy clothes

He only produced it.. never directed it. But this whole money stuff was a bit too much for him. He never had any plan to play Melody Jones, but when they didn't find someone for the part, he decided to play the part himself(also, to safe money.. ). So he did, and people were upset somehow about it and him.. cause, they thought it would ruin his image of a westerner.. didn't realize that he made a joke out of this cliche...

[*~Mrs. Cooper ~*]

Oh, right, producer, lol, DUH!

I thought the movie was adorable BECAUSE he was shy and sweet...but I guess it would upset people 'cause he's not the tough, strong, and rough cowboy he usually plays.

I don't see anything wrong with the film, personally, 'cause I think he's cute when he's shy

[Nici]

Yeeees. He is, he seems so often shy and harmless.. that's why I love him. But he often also had shy attitudes in his "ordinary" Westerns...

[*~Mrs. Cooper ~*]

No doubt, but even in Deeds, what I meant was, he seemed shy but when he got angry he'd let you know how he really felt, being strong.
That's why he's so amazing, mixing the two and actually looking incredibly cool while doing them both!
It's either "shy and sweet" or "strong and outgoing" but he combined shy and strong, sweet and outgoing together and just twisted them around his personality to make it amazing.
