Description:
Fess Parker captured the hearts of millions with his strong, confident portrayal of the legendary king of the wild frontier. There's never been a folk hero quite like Davy Crockett, and you'll see why when you watch him 'grin' down a bear, battle an Indian chief in a tomahawk duel, and fight for freedom at the Alamo. Disney's popular action-adventure inspired millions of children to sport coonskin caps and sing 'The Ballad Of Davy Crockett,' which topped the nation's hit list for 13 weeks! As Walt Disney himself proclaimed, the story of Davy Crockett, with its entertaining blend of drama, humor, and adventure, will always be a colorful reflection of the frontier spirit.

Rating: - Fess Parker is Davy Crockett!!!
Talk about a wonderful family film!!! Here we have Fess Parker as the King of the Wild Frontier, and Buddy Ebsen as his sidekick, and we follow their adventures from Indian fighting to become sheriff to becoming involved in politics, to going to the Alamo, all within a short span of a Disney movie.
I didn't have any problem with this. It's purely entertainment, although you can find some nuggets of truth, here. Davy Crockett was indeed in Congress once, but he left due to the President's ... Read More

I missed out on the Davy Crockett craze, which means I did not have a coonskin cap and was not running around the neighborhood singing 'The Ballad of Davy Crockett" over and over again. By the time I was watching television Fess Parker was Daniel Boone and not Davy Crockett, so it took a bit of mental rearrangement to get my young mind around the idea that he was both when "The Wonderful World of Disney" rebroadcast the three adventures of Davy Crockett that were combined into the theatrical film, "Davy ...

Rating: - Davy Crockett: King of the Wild Frontier
Disney's Davy Crockett is a classic, and a slice of americana.
to many people, Fess Parker is and always will be Davy Crockett.
King of the Wild Frontier explores the life of Davy Crockett, from his days of fighting bullies, to indians, to running for congress, and finally, to his final moments at the Alamo.
there are some excellent speeches in this one, espically his speech in congress.
but the best part of course, is for what Davy Crockett is mostly well known for, his participation ... Read More
