Banjo Hackett (1976)

Member Rating:

Also known as Banjo Hackett: Roamin' Free, this TV pilot film stars Don Meredith in the title role. Banjo Hackett is a western horsetrader, circa 1885, who travels in the company of his orphaned nephew (Ike Eisenmann). While searching for a rare Arabian mare stolen from the nephew's late mother, Hackett occasionally pays a visit to Mollie (Jennifer Warren), a ranch owner whom Banjo would marry if he'd only admit he loved the woman. Millionaire Dan O'Herlihy and untrustworthy bounty hunter Chuck Connors are also after the stolen horse. The film's storyline is as rambling as Banjo Hackett himself, which was both its charm and curse. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

I thought this movie was cute. I don't remember seeing it on TV as a kid-I was around 7 when it came out. Very 1970's made for television show-listen to the background music and look for bit part actors from that era.

A very entertaining flick. I'm surprised that I'm the first to review this movie. If you want to see a good and clean movie, this is the one to see. Good for children, adults and others who want to see a western that isn't all about chasing outlaws, shooting everyone, etc. A nice family movie about a man, a boy and a horse.
