Lee Marvin won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in his dual role as both Tim Strawn, a noseless ("I got it bit off in a fight") gunslinger, and as Kid Shelleen, the drunken has-been who goes up against Strawn at high noon. Jane Fonda, at the height of her sex-kitten period, stars as Catherine Cat Ballou, the schoolmarm-turned-outlaw who teams with Kid to protect her father's ranch from a greedy railroad tycoon. Beloved by critics and one of the biggest box office hits of 1965, Cat Ballou is a marvellous spoof of Westerns - a precursor to films like Paint Your Waggon, Blazing Saddles and other send-ups of the genre, and a one-of-a-kind comic classic thanks to the sure hand of director Elliot Silverstein.

A rip-roaring movie with all the hallmarks of a classic. Brilliant acting; well photographed; brilliantly scripted. A Must-see.

The whole movie is a great sendup of the western movies general. The entire crew is terific,the action is laugh a minute and the theme song (right through) is very enjoyable.
