My boyfriend and his father have been trying to remember a movie's title. From what I gathered they remember two lines and that it is a western movie. I was wondering if anyone knew what that movie was based on the following lines:
"God, Tom! Where's your ear?"
"It's in my pocket."

If anyone could help, thank you!

Also what I forgot to put it is a deputy talking to his sheriff. But we are not 100% sure.

The only hits I found were Barton Fink and Days of Heaven both of which have the line "What happened to your ear?"  But it is not followed up by the pocket line.  Sorry.

We have been looking for this movie, as well.  We remembered it as, "Good Lord, Tom.  What happened to your ear?" And there was a response about it being in his pocket.  Have you been able to find the Movie title? Thanks

Streets of Laredo. A mini series I think, offshoot of Lonesome Dove.

And the original 1949 movie
