Genie, that was "Da Black Shield of Falworth" that you're referring to. I saw a second time a few years ago, and you know...maybe we were a bit hard on Tony....Yes, he DID speak like a Knight from Brooklyn, but he was nowhere near as bad as Richard Burton doing an American Southerner.

The ALL TIME WORST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR (outside of porn films) has to be DELORES TAYLOR in th BILLY JACK movies. Seriously if anyone has seen her, you'll know what I mean. I have no idea what Tom Laughlin, her husband (and Billy Jack) was thinking. Perhaps her family were rich, and financed the series of films....or maybe EVERYONE took drugs in the sixties, and she didn't seem so bad then.
