Billy Jack is the second, and highest grossing, in a series of motion pictures centering on a fictional character of the same name, played by Tom Laughlin. Filming began in Prescott, Arizona, in fall 1969, but the movie was not completed until 1971. American International Pictures pulled out of the production, halting filming. Twentieth Century Fox came in and filming eventually resumed, but when that studio refused to distribute the film, Warner Bros. took over.The film lacked distribution, so Laughlin took it to theaters himself in 1971. The film died at the box office in its initial run but took in more than $40 million in its 1973 rerelease, which was supervised by Laughlin. >> By WikiPedia
