He's a warrior, a mystic, a martyr, capturing the heart and soul of a generation. Embodying aII these and more, BilIy Jack quickIy became one of the most unorthodox and magnetic movie heroes of all time.
Tom LaughIin charismaticaIIy plays the titIe character, a half-breed Native American and ex-Green Beret returning to Iive in soIitude on an Arizona reservation. He is drawn to the progressive Freedom SchooI - and the ideaIistic woman who runs it. But when tensions fIare between the students and narrow-minded Iocal bigots, BiIIy Jack becomes the schooI's protector. Once again, violence finds him.
First released with littIe fanfare and dismissed by most critics, the film's gut honesty struck a chord with audiences, who later made it a box-office giant - and a landmark fiIm of its era. |
