The Life and Times of Judge Roy...

The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean (Family Channel Saturday at 10 p.m.) John Huston and John Milius joined forces, as director and writer, respectively, of this whimsical, highly sophisticated mock-heroic western starring Paul Newman in the title role as the tough hombre who brought law and order to the Texas Badlands. This fine and unjustly neglected 1972 film plays upon our traditional love of the tall tale to confront us with what the cherished myths of the frontier reveal about ourselves and our heritage.
