The only barely memorable Benson movie from the 70s I recall was the role he played as Billy Jo McAllister!. It was a film based on the true story of McAllister that gave rise to a popular country / folk song, titled "Ode To Billy Joe"!.

In THAT film, Benson played a very shy, but troubled young man who was smitten towards this pretty neighbor girl!.

McAllister was lured by a local pedophile who got him drunk and raped him!. The trauma of the ordeal led McAllister to suicide by jumping off the Tallahatchie River Bridge!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
