Rustlers' Rhapsody

Tumblin’ Tumbleweeds! The Wild West goes wacko when the Greatest Fast-Drawin’, Fancy-Dressin’, Silver-Spurred, Geetar-Playin’, Singing Cowboy movie matinee idol Rex O’Herlihan (Major League’s Tom Berenger) hits the saddle in Rustlers’ Rhapsody, a cockeyed, affectionate send-up of the ’40s B-movie western. Classic saddlebag stereotypes and clichés get turned on their ear when our fearless hero, fully dressed in white and atop his dancing horse Wildflower, rides into the tackiest town west of the Pecos to do good deeds and defy desperados. Written and directed by Hugh Wilson, who was responsible for the hilarious Police Academy, the rootin’-tootin’ Rustlers’ Rhapsody also stars G.W. Bailey (Short Circuit), Marilu Henner (Johnny Dangerously), Andy Griffith (Spy Hard), Sela Ward (The Fugitive), Fernando Rey (The French Connection) and Patrick Wayne (Big Jake).
