"Davy Crockett: Rainbow in the Thunder" is an episode of The Magical World of Disney. It originally aired on NBC on November 20, 1988.

Synopsis[]

In this episode of the Disney series, which appeared as a presentation of "Magical World of Disney", Davy and President Andrew Jackson reminisce about an Indian uprising they helped put down 25 years before. An aging Davy Crockett visits his old friend Andrew Jackson, who's now the U.S. president, while on his way to the Alamo. They reminisce about old times, and that flashback begins the adventure. It's all quite good fun despite the fact that, as you would expect from a Disney picture, it's a bit sanitized and the `backwoods' dialogue is sometimes hard to take.
