Ask Clint Eastwood to select personal favorites from amongst his movies and you might be surprised by one choice. “It’s an old-fashioned theme,” Eastwood says, “but if, as a film director, I ever wanted to say something, you’ll find it in Bronco Billy.” “One of the funniest and most touching films you’ll see this or any year” (Rona Barrett, ABC-TV) casts Eastwood as the ace sharpshooter and head of a modern Wild West tent show. Life’s been hard for Billy and his ragtag troupe. But their luck might change – in the unlikely person of a highfalutin society dame (Sondra Locke). You may already have a favorite Eastwood role. Watch Bronco Billy and, chances are, you’ll have another.

Clint Eastwood was well on the way of his extraordinary journey from screen icon to cinema auteur when he helmed this quirky character drama about a ragtag band of Wild West showmen led by the titular Bronco Billy (Eastwood). A fateful encounter with Antoinette (Sondra Locke), a spectacularly down-on-her-luck heiress, leads to a new member of team and a marked change in their fortunes. Eastwood pokes fun at his screen persona while delivering a moving and heartfelt paean to the power of personal imagination and American re-invention. Reinvigorated on this hue-riffic Blu-ray thanks to a brand new HD master, Bronco Billy arrives with all the shading and grain of proper early Eighties film stock, ready to make a bullseye in your memories. 16×9 Widescreen
