The greatest Western I ever saw!

Rating: 10/10 (28 July 2006)

This Western is for real! "Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid" were one of the toughest outlaws in the West, yet they made their mark in history. Butch(Paul Newman) and Sundance(Robert Redford) new the tricks of the trade on robbery. He and his gang would rob the Union Pacific RR and other banks just to get their kicks. I liked the part where the gang would have Harvey Logan(Ted Cassidy, Lurch on the "The Addams Family", and the Narrator of "The Incredible Hulk") be in charge of the robberies. Butch and the Kid wouldn't allow it. So they fight about it and Logan is put down fast. Then there's Etta Place(Katherine Ross, "The Graduate") who woos both the Kid and Butch. I like the bicycle scene where the song "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head". That scene would be mimicked in "The Great Muppet Caper" Yes these two would go all the way in robbing banks, but when the price goes up, they reroute to Bolivia. Ever since they been east, the trio had plenty of fun without robbing a bank in that area. Yep, they went down in Bolivia, or did they? I heard resources that they survived the attack despite the wounds. But who's to say? This is a true story, despite a few changes I liked it though. The gun shooting duo of Butch and Sundance lives on in history. 5 stars!
