About This Movie

Saga of Sonora is a laid-back musical TV special that takes you on a quirky adventure through the Wild West. Vince Edwards plays a somewhat dashing hero trying to thwart the schemes of gold-hungry villains, portrayed by Jill St. John and Zero Mostel, who bring a nice blend of menace and humor. The pacing does have that classic TV vibe, a bit leisurely, but it fits the whimsical atmosphere. Lesley Ann Warren shines as the love interest, adding a touch of sincerity amidst the comedic chaos. The practical effects are simple, yet effective for its time, and the music, well, it captures that early '70s charm. There's something quite distinctive about its blend of comedy and musical elements that makes it an interesting piece for collectors.
