The late Kris Kristofferson has San Antonio tie through 1972 film Cisco Pike
Country music icon Kris Kristofferson, who died Saturday at 88, has a surprising San Antonio connection: the cult 1972 film Cisco Pike. The movie — which features Brownsville-born Kristofferson's first-ever starring role — was made in the wake of the 1969 counterculture classic Easy Rider. Both movies stemmed from Hollywood's eagerness to capture the burgeoning hippie culture and tap into a new youth market.
