Yes, it was a very new concept. Now we're so used to it, but before there was a very clear delineation between 'good guys' & 'bad guys', not much grey area. And most previous Westerns didn't use humor and banter like here. Not the strong silent types of classic Westerns, who are very serious people. Plus the modern music.

@behindthescenesphotos5133 8 күн бұрын

There were a lot of westerns before this where criminals are presented as antiheros; Jesse James, Billy the Kid, Belle Starr, The Daltons, The Youngers, John Wesley Hardin, Black Bart, even Jack McCall, who's claim to fame was shooting Wild Bill in the back had "Jack McCall: Desperado." Doc Holliday was always presented as morally gray. The simplification of "the good guys and the bad guys" was never the case. Good/Bad men and layered characters were present since the silent era.

It's an absolute classic movie, and it won a ton of awards. The screenplay is by the man who wrote "The Princess Bride," if you've seen that. The music was by Burt Bacharach, who wrote many hit songs. In addition to three Oscars, it won a Grammy and a Golden Globe. If you want to see another classic film with this duo, watch "The Sting."

Thematically, it is similar to Gran Torino (ie getting rid of some of the bad guys in town) and that actor who played the undertaker was originally in the silent films, interesting to watch, and the smarmy newspaper guy. Ma'am, we've a touchy situation here. The guy who played Colonal Potter in MASH is in The Shootist as well and the guy who directed Apollo 13 along with Lauren Bacall as his mom.

@Firefax 9 күн бұрын

This script is used in screenwriting classes as an example of a near-perfect script. There is not a word of dialogue wasted and the tempo of the action rises and falls exactly as needed.

@Jessica_Roth 8 күн бұрын

Goldman wrote a classic book on screenwriting, "Adventures in the Screen Trade". It includes the entire script and you really get a sense of how the Super Posse chase (which is the whole middle of the film) keeps building and building and building. One bone of contention between Goldman and George Roy Hill (the director) is that Goldman tends to be very hyperbolic in his writing. ("The sun comes up and it's the most amazing incredible sunrise anyone has ever seen" Hill mocks him with at one point.) And certainly the descriptions here are written very large, especially the tracking shot when the SuperPosse first show up and the camera zooms in until we get the horses leaping out of the rail car. But Hill completely nails that shot. And all the shots. I appreciate your appreciating his work. Another collaboration between Goldman, Hill, and Robert Redford (who was in five films of Goldman's, all told, almost six) is "The Great Waldo Pepper" from 1975. Goldman was disappointed that it was not as successful as they hoped, but it's still a good watch. For more Paul Newman, check out "Harper" (1966), which is pretty much Goldman's first film. (He'd done a minor spy movie before that.) And Goldman also reunited with Katharine Ross on "The Stepford Wives" (1973, I think). (The remake with Nicole Kidman has its virtues, but I prefer the original.) And no discussion of Goldman is complete without mentioning "Marathon Man" (1975), which has a very well-known classic scene. (Goldman's novel is better, IMO, but the film is still damn good.) Of course, some will say the best film that ever came out of the Goldman family was "The Lion in Winter" (1968), by his big brother Jimmy, based on James Goldman's play. it was certainly nominated for more Academy Awards than anything William Goldman ever wrote.

@@station8076 Yes, the novel version of "The Princess Bride" has a lovely framing device where Goldman, "re-reading" the book to find out why his son didn't like it, discovers that the "actual" book is a scathing look at the government of "Guilder" and a satire of the social mores of the time, and his father had cut out all the boring parts and just read him the good stuff. But you can't really do all that in a screenplay, so Goldman followed his own advice and just put "the good stuff" on screen.

Fun story vaguely related. When this movie came out I was just over 2 years old, and being an idiot I stuck my finger in a room fan. Ripped it to shreds. It was a small town, so my Dad took me to the doctor's office which was only a couple blocks away. In the surgery the doctor sewed up my finger, and today it's fine except for a crazy scar. The whole time he worked on me he sang "Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head" to keep my calm. I actually remember this. My Dad turned pale watching, and had to leave the room!

My grandfather had one of those electric bug killers with that purplish light inside. Now, being little kids, my brother and I mistakenly thought that light is what killed the bugs. We'd hear that little zapping sound when the bugs went in there, and we wanted to hear that ourselves. We got a wooden stick that had fallen off a tree and thought we'd just tap that lamp and here the noise. Well, as I'm sure you know and as we definitely found out, it's that wire cage around the lamp that kills the flying insects. So that stick was making this loud electrical racket as we slid that stick in, and we were so intent on just tapping that lamp that we didn't react at first and pull that stick out. Now our parents and grandparents think we are dying out there because of this and ran out in a panic, and it didn't help that I told them not to worry because wood is an insulator. They obviously couldn't tell we were safe from the living room, they just heard all this racket, so they took my comment as a smart alecky one.

I find it so funny that so many reactors don't know who the hell Robert Redford is. Most feel like they've seen him before in Captain America - The Winter Soldier where he plays Alexander Pierce. In the late 60's & 70's, he was THE heartthrob. He was Brad Pitt before Brad Pitt. You were right with your "Jeremiah Johnson" comment, one of his films in the height of his career. He's 87 years old now, but he'll always be a Hollywood legend. Always love watching movies with you! Thanks!

They did a western tv series based off this movie called Alias Smith And Jones. In this series instead of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid they were called Hannible Haze and Kid Curry. Imagine if Butch and Sundance were offered an amnesty if they keep themselves clean for a year. No more stealing they have to be honest citizens and stay out of trouble and they will no longer be wanted. However the catch is in the meantime they are still are wanted so they have to stay ahead of the law for a year or face 20 years in prison. It's a good western series and was even popular in Europe back in the 70's.

Movies like "Little Big Man" - "A Man Called Horse" - " The Wild Bunch"- "McCabe and Mrs. Miller"- "Jeremiah Johnson" - "Blazing Saddles" to name a few. IF you like this then you should watch "The Sting", starring the same leads with the same director and won 7 academy awards, highly recommend.

@aresee8208 10 күн бұрын

Just to be precise, "The Wild Bunch" was released in June 1969, while "Butch Cassidy..." was released in September 1969. So, "The Wild Bunch" preceded "Butch Cassidy..." by three months. BTW, "True Grit" came out before both of them. It was also released in June 1969, a week before "The Wild Bunch." Interestingly, Strother Martin was in all three of them.

You wisely noted it feels modern because it was the first pop culture western - the script sold for $350,000 in 1969 which was massive. It's William Goldman's script that make it pop and this film inspired the next gen of buddy/action films.

Background : The gang was called "The Hole in the Wall Gang", after a place where they supposedly hid out; There's general agreement that two men were killed in Bolivia, but there are persistent rumors that it wasn't Butch and Sundance, or at least not Butch. People reported seeing him alive and well, decades after he was reported killed.

And in another time, place and movie many years later....The Whole in the Wall Gang was given to the gang that ripped off jewelry stores in Las Vegas led by Frank Cullota with backing of Anthony Spilotro who was the mob's protector of Lefty Rosenthal who was in charge of mob casinos....The story was made into the book and subsequent Martin Scorsese film...Casino.

Hole In The Wall is in western Wyoming, and it's definitey not the bluff area along a river shown in the movie. The ranch might be, though, because it's a plateau surrounded on all sides by a barren sloped grade. There might be a notch in that grade, making it the hole in the wall. The perfect hideout because it is open and easy to protect.

Soo many amazing things going on in cinema and music during this time period. While I was living through it, it was just life but looking back it was an amazing time to be alive! Two of my favorite actors and Katherine Ross and the movie's direction was perfect as well. I'm pretty sure there were multiple Oscars for this movie. Now with the benefit of hindsight I feel very fortunate to have lived through such an amazing time.

The Sundance Kid real name was Harry Longabaugh. He picked up the nickname Sundance Kid from the town of Sundance, which was the only place he was ever jailed. The Hole in the wall gang came from the name of their hideout. It was deep in a canyon with a choke point where if a posse tried to force entry they would be sitting ducks to be picked off. FYI this film picked up the most Academy awards in 1969 but it did not win best picture and it was the highest grossing film of 69 if I recall correctly

They went to Argentina first and built a ranch and made a lot of money. She was with them for a few years and there are pictures. The ranch is still there. Sundance took her back to San Fransico and then returned and they started robbing again...it was then they were chased out of Argentina to Bolivia and the shoot-out. No-one knows why they started robbing again...the ranch was very profitable...but it may have been that American authorities started bugging the Argentian government about arresting and returning them. They are buried somewhere in that tiny mining town...the graves that are there are for the tourists.

Butch Cassidy grew up in Western Colorado and went to work on the largest cattle ranch in Colorado at the age of 16. When the owner was killed in a card game he teamed up with the Sundance kid. and their first job was the bank in telluride Colorado a mining town now a swanky ski resort. Their refuge was a rocky mountain called "robbers roost" located in Western Utah. The part where they used too much dynamite and blew the train to bits was in parachute Colorado about a half hour away from us. Robert Redford created one of the most famous film festivals in Sundance Utah. The ending of the movie was controversial as Butches current relatives say they escaped to Utah and lived to an old age eventually succumbed to pneumonia in his eighties.

In downtown there is an area called Sundance Square which has a live music stage, fountains and restaurants surrounding it. Also the very famous portrait of Cassidy, Sundance and the rest of the gang was photographed here. There’s a part of old Fort Worth back in that was known as Hell’s Half Acre which was the red light district of that time. All the infamous outlaws of that time frequented the area which was known for its lawlessness and violence. There is a graveyard where it once existed that has the final resting place for many of the notorious criminals of that time period. You can easily find the old portrait of the gang with a quick google.

The Sundance Film Festival (in the US) is named for the Sundance Kid. In Bolivia they were going under the names of Smith and Jones. (Recall the Sundance Kid asked Butch if he was Smith or Jones.)

Also, if you have not checked out Silverado or Unforgiven, those are pretty good (ok... excellent) westerns as well.

This is written for a new generation of people who are born at the end of an era & have difficulty fast changing with the times. Tons of people trained for manufacturing & guys coming back from Vietnam, which they took shit for, were suddenly facing massive job shortages going into the computer age as they watched several major manufacturers close down & many thriving mom-and-pop stores close in the ripple effect of those closures at the end of the Post-WW2 Economic Boom. The worst part was watching once proud hard-working people unable to find a job or find a job with decent pay. Also, There's a documentary about the Old West & it is mentioned that the telephone had a huge impact on bank robberies. I was born in 1968 & grew up in North-East Los Angeles, CA. I remember going anywhere more than an hour away from the city seemed like a step back in time. I can imagine in Bolivia that phone service might be spotty at best & back then probably felt like stepping back in time. They were done in The US so going to Bolivia let them step back in time for a moment & prolong the inevitable. Watching them struggle must have felt personal to young adults back then. So watching them go down guns blazing with an "EFF the System" attitude really hit hard for average peeps when it came out.

William Goldman was the first screenwriter in 1969 to usher in the post modern cheeky meta narrative of cinema cool into movies. This film is the first buddy cop movie that turned this into a genre troupe. This is the first western that broke all the movie cliches and stereotypes of the cowboy themes and was considered quite groundbreaking at the time because it had the 'heroes' doing anti-heroic things which in a time John Wayne ruled the west on screen anything less than being stoic and noble was sacrilegious. Butch cheating in fight by kicking the guy in the nards was unheard of until this picture. The titular duo run from their pursuers for the entire second act never facing them. Cowboy protagonists on film never ran till this film because it was assumed to be perceived as cowardly and weak. Both men are iconic and famous equally now, but at the time of filming and the movie's release, only Paul Newman was a mega watt known movie star. Robert Redford was a regular working actor who was an up and comer who hadn't had his breakout success hit to propel him to the next level yet so was considered a risk to cast. This is the movie that after ten years struggling in the business, he became an overnight success. And this is the first period piece like a western to use an anachronistic music choice not from the era, but contemporary at the time that plays in the movie montage bicycle riding scene. This was revolutionary at the time. William Goldman really was an innovator who pushed film into modernism and a very sly, dark wit about it all. The first overtly meta writer who was a genre deconstructionalist in the film setting and traditions he was playing around in. He would kind of reinvent the wheel again in his field when he subverted the rules and expectations of a fairy tale when he wrote The Princess Bride. He's a legend whose work still feels fresh and subversive as well as mischievous.
