BROTHERS of the FRONTIER
ABC Sunday Night Movie
starring: Jonathan Frakes, The Lawrence Brothers
An old fashioned Western adventure set in Montana in the late 1700s with a very Disney-esque touch --- indeed although originally made as an ABC movie, this film has become a perennial family-favorite on the Disney Channel. A poor but hard working family must flee their land when their teenage son is accused by a wealthy land owner of a crime that he didn't commit. Includes a little of everything from Rafting to capture by Indians. In fact, the White Water Rafting sequences rival anything found in the highest budgeted of theatrical features. Jon Frakes gives a powerful performance, and in a character quite different from his 'Star Trek' personna.
