My 150 Favorite Movies - #22

Destry Rides Again (1939)

Another of 1939's (the best year IMHO) wonderful movies, Destry Rides Again featured James Stewart in his first western, playing a deputy sheriff without a gun, and Marlene Dietrich in a role that some say inspired  Madeline Kahn's character Lili Von Shtupp in Blazing Saddles. Includes the classic tune, "See What the Boys in the Back Room Will Have."
