Disney's Elfego Baca: more like a courthouse Zorro, 25 January 2008
6/10
Author: moonspinner55 from redlands, ca

Short-lived serial from Walt Disney's television show obviously utilized the dusty streets and sets from "Zorro"--as well as that show's mixture of oater dramatics, shoot-outs, and themes of villains getting their comeuppance. This episode finds gunman-turned-defense attorney Elfego Baca (Robert Loggia, looking very dashing in Spaniard's make-up, with a thin mustache and western suit) willing to defend a widower-rancher of bank robbery in 1880s Santa Fe, New Mexico. Seems the rancher has been identified as one of the gunman (he wears a patch over one eye) and one of the getaway horses was found on his property. Baca, whose motto could very well be "a gun never ends an argument--only a life", is very sympathetic to the rancher and his two daughters, one of whom is played by Annette Funicello (maturing nicely from her Mouseketeer days, though perhaps too modern in her vocal phrasing). The mystery at the center of the plot is fairly see-through (and is given away early by the scenarists), and there's an uncomfortable moment with Baca confronting a nasty drunk outside a saloon. Still, the program certainly looks good as photographed by the incomparable Lucien Ballard, and it has a surprisingly violent (for Disney) and rousing climax.
