Subject(s): A scene from the film "Cisco Pike" Format: 8 x 10 Color Lithographic Photograph with caption. Origin: Authentic Columbia Pictures photo provided to media outlets for promotional purposes. Release Date: 1972 Condition: Very Good Comments: Cisco Pike is a 1972 drama written and directed by Bill L. Norton. It stars Kris Kristofferson as a musician fallen on hard luck who turned to dealing marijuana as a means of income. The film also stars Karen Black, Harry Dean Stanton, Antonio Fargas, Gene Hackman, Viva, and Texas musician Doug Sahm. This film was not widely embraced by audiences on its initial release but has become a cult movie. Much of its cult status comes from fans of Kris Kristofferson and Doug Sahm, but it also carries a cult status because of its dated (and unintentionally funny) take on the subject of drugs, dealers, and the lifestyle in which they led.
