Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

Butch Cassidy leads the Hole-in-the-Wall Gang, while the Sundance Kid supplies its most dependable gun. After repeated train robberies draw an unusually persistent posse, the two outlaws and schoolteacher Etta Place consider a new start in Bolivia.

George Roy Hill offsets frontier danger with freeze-frames, Burt Bacharach's modern songs, comic reversals, and Conrad Hall's burnished landscapes—Newman and Redford's relaxed timing makes the outlaws' friendship feel both spontaneous and already endangered.
