22% off (Sale price $15.59, Reg. Price $19.99) :: Posing as purveryors of a snake-oil elixir, Johnny and Steve are really Confederate spies out to nab a major cure-all for depleted rebel coffers: $150,000 in gold from the San Francisco mint. What, you say the war is over? Well, maybe the good olâ boys can return the lucreâ¦and avoid being arrested in the process! Roy Orbison essays his lone feature-film role as Johnny, he of the guitar that can twang a chord and riff bullets. The story elements â amiable Indians (including Iron Eyes Cody) âinventâ popcorn, a wagonload of cuties tag along with Johnny and, of course, thereâs that guitar â are a ramble, but the tale agreeably frames seven tunes featuring crooner Orbisonâs signature tremolo. Watch where you point that six-stringer, Roy.
