There Was a Crooked Man... is a 1970 western comedy starring Kirk Douglas and Henry Fonda and directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz. The film follows Paris Pitman (Douglas), a charismatic criminal who ends up in jail, and his attempts to escape the prison of warden Lopeman (Fonda). The film was one of a number of low-budget westerns which Douglas and Fonda were involved in through the late sixties and seventies, though this was their first western collaboration (second overall, after 1965's In Harm's Way.)
