BRONCO BILLY A CLINT EASTWOOD FILM THAT GETS IGNORED

Clint Eastwood is known for many films.  I don't have to name them but one film I will name that is really ignored is "Bronco Billy" which at the time of its release was considered a "Box office disappointment".  It was coming out about 18 months after "Every Which Way But Loose" which was Clint's Biggest Hit up to that time.

Warner Brothers had major demands on movie theaters that were showing the film!  However when the film was under performing the s Warner Brothers let the theaters "Swap Out" "Bronco Billy" for a reissue of "Superman" if they desired.


All the years later however nobody talks about the film.  That's too bad because it is one of Clint's Best.  Its about a traveling Circus Show that has fallen on hard times.  Its great for the entire family but don't let that stop you.  The cast is very good and its widely held belief that this is Clint's personal favorite film of his.
