The Legend of Hillbilly John(1972)
https://youtu.be/QwS46mr2kHc?si=Pzr_87AP1xT4Wlh4
Some guy in a heavy robe shows up, then transforms into a 19th century traveling salesman.... He starts walking through the woods pontificating about the devil, then wonders onto a modern day construction site (I think to let the audience know this movie won't stay committed to one time frame.....
We then go to a young mountain man, whom, after a night with his girlfriend walks down an old dirt road & plays guitar for a musical number, while locals express their disapproval... He ends up at the local bootlegger, who reveals his grandfather saw the devil the night before...
He runs home, where his grandfather reveals he made silver guitar strings from three Kennedy dollars, & is ready to face off with the devil... The old man plays his guitar at midnight, & the film burns up (He lost)...
At his funeral the next day, it's revealed the Kennedy dollars had no silver in them...
It turns out, the narrator from the beginning of the movie is the local dowser, & finds Spanish silver coins on the boy's property.... He makes new strings, & is challenged by a greedy undertaker to find gold his ancestors stole from a witch, thus starting three adventures....
Lots of scenes of the protagonist walking down the road playing guitar & singing.... Maintains a steady pace for the first hour, but drags a bit in the 3rd act....
Kind of hard to understand the backwoods lingo at the beginning, & most of the movie is poorly lit, but it's okay if you don't mind acid movies & folk tales....

Three cash-strapped suburban housewives (Jane Curtin, Susan St. James, and Jessica Lange) hatch a plan to steal a million dollars from their local shopping mall during its anniversary celebration.
A light, breezy caper comedy whose sitcom plot was probably written on a napkin, but the three leading ladies make an appealing team (Curtin and St. James later co-starred in the long running sitcom "Kate & Allie") and the supporting cast is full of familiar faces like Dabney Coleman, Richard Benjamin, and Fred Willard.
