This 1969 Western encapsulates the genre, with dramatic chase scenes on horseback through breathtaking landscapes, daring robberies of banks and trains, true comradery between cowboys who would risk their lives for one another, and copious amounts of renegade charm. Butch Cassidy (Paul Newman) is the smart, savvy leader of The Hole in the Wall Gang, and his sidekick the Sundance Kid (Robert Redford) ranks among the best shooters the West has known. This combination of brains and menace allows the duo to roam unchallenged, staging petty robberies when needed and otherwise kicking back at the local brothel. But when a six-pack of the best cowboys in nearby states gather to bring down the rebels, using a Native American tracker to follow them across rivers, over mountains, and through deserts; Butch and Sundance decide to flee. Gathering Sundance's girlfriend (Katherine Ross), they make their way to Bolivia via New York City. Unfortunately, old habits die hard, and before they know it, the charismatic criminals find themselves in an all-too-familiar situation, this time facing South American enemies.Directed by George Roy Hill, BUTCH CASSIDY's balance of drama, action, and humor is a winning combination on its own. But this excellent tale of friendship and adventure is most successful for its talented leads, who fill every scene with wit, skill, and machismo. A broad color palette showcases glorious sunsets and peaceful rivers running through the craggy Rocky Mountains, while brief interludes of black and white still shots inject artistic flair. In every sense a classic, BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID is simply timeless.Academy Awards Best Original Screenplay 1969 William Goldman American Screenwriter Academy Awards Best Original Score 1969 Burt Bacharach Songwriter Academy Awards Best Original Song 1969 Burt Bacharach Songwriter Academy Awards Best Cinematography 1969 Conrad L.

    Redford and Newman at their best as the west's most unfortunate outlaws. Newman plays Butch leader of "The Hole in the Wall Gang" who along with Sundance played by Redford are targgeted by angry railway bosses who hire top law men and the best tracke...r around to find and kill them. This takes Butch and Sundance on a wild getaway through the west and onto Bolivia where the non stop action, robbing and comedy leads to an unforgetable dramatic finale. Read more Less
