Blends adventure, romance and comedy to tell the story of the West's most likeable outlaws, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, as they set out for Bolivia with the law on their heels
"One of the most popular screen westerns ever made, this Academy Award winning classic blends adventure, romance and comedy to tell the true story of the West's most likeable outlaws. No one is quicker than Butch Cassidy when it comes to get rich quick schemes, and his sidekick Sundance is a wizard with a gun. When these two bungling bank and train robbers tire of running from the law, they set out for Bolivia with Sundance's girlfriend. Though they can barely speak enough Spanish to communicate 'this is a stick-up,' that's only a minor detail to the two nicest 'bad-guys' who ever rode the West."--Container
