JUNIOR BONNER gives you nice characters and wholesome flavor. In fact, a real taste of Prescott, Arizona is discovered when the audience follows JR (Steve McQueen)home to see his family. Life, however, isn't what is used to be for our fearless hero. His brother, Curly Bonner, has sold his soul to real estate, while his father, Ace, chases a mindless dream of living down under. Yet, through all the trials and tribulations, there is a wonderful acceptance in the Bonner clan. Whether it be enjoying mashed potatoes or simply sharing a bottle of the good stuff, they understand what life entails.
Nonetheless, JR is running low on money and is in sore need of a bull riding victory.
Will he conquer this feat? Will he be able to prove to his brother that the traditional cowboy can still achieve?
You'll have to watch it, partner. Because a good rider never spills the truth.
