synopsis
Produced and written by Dwight Brooks, Poco is a rank imitation of those Sunn International "four-waller" family flicks. Poco the dog is separated from his owner, a cute little crippled girl, in an auto accident. The faithful mutt treks across the desert, experiencing several moderately exciting adventures while searching for his mistress. Along the way, veteran character actor Chill Wills shows up, shamelessly slobbering his way through the requisite "goldhearted prospector" schtick. With Wills' aid, Poco is finally reunited with the little girl.
