#489 Alexi's BILLY JACK (1971, dir. Tom Laughlin)

EPISODE #489-- We delve into the world of vetspolitation/counter-culture/biker/American Indian movies with the baffling and actually kind of cool BILLY JACK (1971), directed by Tom Laughlin, who also wrote and started in the movie. The film is about a half-Indian Green Beret who takes off his shoes to karate kick guys. Yes, Quentin Tarantino is obsessed with this movie, how did you guess? We also talk about A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN (1992, dir. Penny Marshall), SILENCE OF THE LAMBS (1991, dir. John Demme)), Apple TV's WIDOW'S BAY (2026 - ), JAPAN'S LONGEST DAY (1967, dir. Kihachi Okamoto), and DC'S latest superhero flick, SUPERGIRL (2026). LINKS-- Join the cause at Patreon.com/Quality.
