Description:
Born Losers: The first film in which the character Billy Jack ever appeared. Tom Laughlin had written Billy Jack back in the 1950’s, but couldn’t get anyone interested in a film about Indians – half-breed or otherwise. Tom Laughlin toned down the Indian and political themes in order to get Born Losers made. It became a very successful independent film! Billy Jack: The film that broke the mold. Billy Jack was, once again, the largest grossing independent film of all time. People saw Billy Jack 25 times or more than any movie in history until Star Wars. From the karate to the Native American spirituality, to the Freedom School, to the racial tolerance, few films have ever been this successful or stuck their necks out so far. The Trial of Billy Jack: The Trial of Billy Jack not only broke every box-office record for its day, it forever changed the way motion pictures were distributed. It was for the release of The Trial of Billy Jack that Tom Laughlin created the mega-multiple release that included the first-ever use of national TV advertising for a motion picture. Billy Jack Goes To Washington: Perhaps the most controversial film of all. Twenty years before Senators like Bradley, Rudman, Cohen, and Pell quit saying the U.S. Senate is so corrupt it doesn’t work anymore, Billy Jack Goes to Washington told a story straight out of the headlines. At the Washington premiere one Senator exploded, vowing to do everything in his power to make sure Billy Jack Goes to Washington was never released.

Rating:  - Great Movie
Havent seen this movie in so long now on dvd, great movie at a great price.
Rating:  - Looking Baack
Everyone seems to look at "Billy Jack Goes to Washington" as a radical & new statement when it was released. So many references to government blocking its release and all, but take a look at James Stewart in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington released back in 1939. It is obvious where the the script came from as it is virtually identical. Not at all a new or revolutionary story. Other than that, I like the series. The movies take me back to a different time in our culture.
Rating: - ok
the first two movies in this collection are pretty good the last two i would not watch more than once. if you old movies or are a billy jack fan you may like this set. I was a little disapointed.

My husband and I have really been enjoying these movies. We grew up when they were new films and we both loved them then.....and now!
Rating:  - the Billy Jack Collection
All movies were as I remember but I had never seen Billy Jack goes to Washington. Although it had an all star cast unlike earlier films, it just laid there for me.
