Wild in the Sky is a 1972 American action comedy film directed by William T. Naud and starring Georg Stanford Brown, Brandon deWilde (in his final film role), Keenan Wynn, Tim O'Connor, and Dick Gautier. The film was released as Black Jack in New York in December 1973. The film was released by American International Pictures in March 1972.[1][2][3]
The film is a comedy set during the Vietnam War. Three boys are sentenced to prison for using cannabis, by a judge who views them as Hippies. The bus transporting them to prison falls down a canyon, and the surviving prisoners find themselves in an Air Force base with troops waiting for transport to Vietnam. The prisoners attempt to blend in with the troops, but unwittingly board a Boeing B-52 Stratofortress. They attempt to hijack the aircraft, causing most of the crew to parachute out. By the end of the film, the bomber wanders aimlessly over the United States.
