THE FRISCO KID (1979)
It stars Gene Wilder and Harrison Ford as the rabbi and the cowboy, and they're both sooooo wonderful!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Frisco_Kid

There are some great lines in the film, wonderful music, and lots of laughs, with some sweet, sad moments, too. I think they did a superb job!

Here's another link with information:
http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0079180/

The composer of the score, Frank De Vol, is the man at the piano in the bar scene! By the way, Wikipedia trivia says that that bar scene won Harrison Ford the role of Indiana Jones! Also, it says that John Wayne originally was supposed to play Tommy Lillard, but I simply can't picture that. I'm not sure that it would have been nearly as funny.

I just have to leave with a quotation from imbd:
Chief Gray Cloud: [in reference to Avram's god] What does he do?
Avram: He... He can do anything!
Chief Gray Cloud: Then why can't he make rain?
Avram: Because he doesn't make rain. He gives us strength when we're suffering. He gives us compassion when all that we feel is hatred. He gives us courage when we're searching around blindly like little mice in the darkness... but He does not make rain!
[Thunder and lightning begin, followed by a downpour]
Avram: Of course... sometimes, just like that, he'll change His mind.
