Q: I have the Disney video Lucky Luke: Daisy Town, and I find it rather interesting. My question is, what prompted Disney to make this film and how come I cannot find any information about it that is not written in French?

A: Disney did not make the Lucky Luke films, but only obtained the rights to release them on videocassette in the United States. Besides the Daisy Town video, there is one titled The Ballad of the Daltons. They were originally released on VHS in 1984 and reissued in 1990 (when they were also released on laserdisc). The two films had been produced in France in 1971 and 1978 respectively, directed by René Goscinny.
