Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

 

This film has won numerous awards. The highest award was the Best Original Screenplay by William Goldman in the Oscar awards ceremony. And this film is already a classic in the world of cinema.
 
Butch Cassidy (Paul Newman) and Sundance Kid (Robert Redford)  are in a band of robbers in Wyoming. But this band does not kill. Butch is the one who organizes, while Sundance is the man of action. One day, they assault a train. And a group of men begin to pursue them. Butch and Sundance are going to the mountains and run through several towns. But they are persecuted. When they escape, they take refuge in the home of Sundance's girlfriend, Etta (Katharine Ross). From that moment, these two characters will live many adventures.

 
 
This movie is a western. But in this movie you can find intrigue, suspense, action and humor. The story of the movie is not a great story. The script is bad. However, the best of the film are its two main characters: Paul Newman and Robert Redford. These two have a special feeling. Her performance in the film is fabulous.  His dialogues are very funny. And of course, they are two great actors. And so they are icons of American cinema. The chemistry between these two actors is a reality.
The film is based on real events. The two characters really existed and with the movie, increase the legend of the two thieves. It was very honored the soundtrack of this movie. The song "Raindrops keep falling on my head" is very famous.
In conclusion, a movie forgotten but a funny movie. A hilarious movie, but this has an unimaginative script.
Rate: 3
