As they said at the beginning, this story is mostly true. There is no definitive answer as to how or where Butch and Sundance died. There are other stories, but this is a good one. But now you have to watch The Sting. Same two stars, same director and a GREAT movie. In fact it won the Best Picture Oscar.

One thing, the ending was left like that as Newman and Redford were such lovable characters and stars the filmmakers didn't really want to show you them dying horribly or it would have changed the movie considerably. Hence, the ending of them running into a blaze and freezing became one of most iconic endings ever filmed that's been copied ever since.

And it was done with a difficult and complex optical effect by L.B. Abbott. He actually snapping a full length picture of the guys alongside the movie camera and pasting and retouching that photo into an enlarged photo of the fort. When the matching film frame to the photo was found, that is where they froze and dissolved to the sepia-tone photo of them at the fort. And they pulled back of that still photo. The difficulty was making sure the dissolve was aligned and matched so that it looked entirely like the same picture.

Excellent suggestions! I'd add "Torn Curtain" (1966) - can you imagine Paul Newman co-starring with Julie Andrews (of all people) in a Cold War thriller directed by Alfred Hitchcock? For Robert Redford, two more: "Spy Game" (2001), in which he stars with Brad Pitt - someone had the brilliant idea of co-starring the two "ultra-hunk" actors of their generations, and it worked beautifully. The other is "An Unfinished Life" (2005), starring Redford, Morgan Freeman, and Jennifer Lopez. Pairing Morgan Freeman with ANYBODY works well, and he and Redford are no exception. (Of the films I've mentioned, "An Unfinished Life" is the most "human interest"-y, with strong characters, and it's an overlooked gem.) I'm sure Jen would love these, even if she didn't do reactions.

Butch Cassidy and Harry Longbaugh (Sundance) were real. All of these types of films have to play with fact in order to be entertaining. But this one is less outrageous than a lot of them. There's a theory that Butch actually survived and returned to the U.S. under an alias. Of course, there's rumors like that for almost every famous or infamous person. But that one has more cred than most. Probably not true, but possible. You can see Newman and Redford paired up again, and with the same director, in "The Sting." And their antagonist is Robert Shaw (Quint from Jaws).

Hey, Jen!!! 'Butch & Sundance' is one of the best. George Roy Hill did so many great movies, and this is one of the best. It won Best Screenplay, Best Score, Best Song, and Best Cinematography. It was also the first teaming of Redford and Newman, who would team up for 'The Sting' a few years later. Katherine Ross (Etta) has basically retired from acting, but she is alive and well and married to Sam Elliott (the Cowboy in 'The Big Lebowski'). Robert Redford (Sundance) was one of the biggest stars of the late 1960s through the 1980s and became a voice for independent film in the 1990s through his Sundance Institute and The Sundance Film Festival which are in Provo, Utah. He originally named his ranch Sundance as well. He won two Oscars...one for Best Director for 'Ordinary People', his directorial debut, and for Lifetime Acheivement. He also played Secretary Alexander Pierce in the MCU (Captain America: The Winter Soldier & Avengers: Endgame) Must watches: - 'The Way We Were' with Barbra Streisand - 'The Sting' with Newman and Robert Shaw, also directed by George Roy Hill - 'All The President's Men' with Dustin Hoffman. Redford as reporter Bob Woodward and Hoffman as reporter Carl Bernstein covering the Watergate break-in for The Washington Post. Also written by William Goldman. - 'Up Close & Personal' with Michelle Pfeiffer. Paul Newman (Butch)...one of Hollywood's greatest stars and greatest humanitarians. He married the beautiful Joanne Woodward, a big star in her own right. He won the Oscar for Best Actor as "Fast" Eddie Felson in 'The Color of Money' directed by Martin Scorsese, a role he played years earlier in a film called 'The Hustler'. He starred opposite Tom Cruise in the film. If you have ever bought any of the 'Newman's Own' brand of foods, you have given money to a company founded by Newman and Woodward that donates 100% of its profits to charities, including Newman's own 'Hole In The Wall Camps' for children who are seriously ill. Since 1982, it is estimated that Newman's Own products have raised anywhere from $500 million to $1 billion for charity. Must watches: - 'Slap Shot', one of the funniest and most biting political movies ever...about a low-end ice hockey team. - 'Cat On A Hot Tin Roof' with Elizabeth Taylor, from the Tennessee Willims play. - 'Hud' - 'Cool Hand Luke' - 'The Sting' (yeah...again!!!) - 'The Last Movie Stars', a new 2022 documentary for HBOMax directed by Ethan Hawke about Paul and Joanne. It is fascinating and doesn't shy away from the warts of their relationship or who they were. Taken from transcripts of an unfinished memoir Newman was planning and abandoned...Newman is voiced by George Clooney and Woodward by Laura Linney. Of course, the screenplay by William Goldman is one of those perfect scripts, it was just a few years after this he would write the novel, 'The Princess Bride'...and you know that one! This won him his first Oscar for Best Screenplay, and he would win again in a few years for 'All The President's Men'.

He also started a line of food items called Newman's Own. Popcorn, salsa, salad dressings, pasta sauces and more. The bulk of his profits go to support the camp still. I believe he had that in his will. He and his wife (actress JoAnne Woodward) raised and donated a lot of money for various charities. Both outstanding (award winning) actors as well.

These actors and that director will be teamed up again and you'll love the musical adaptations by Marvin Hamlish of Scott Joplin's piano rags.

Jen, you definitely should try some Spaghetti-Westerns. This later american westerns were back influenced by Spaghetti-Westerns, as was Quentin Tarantino. Original Django (1966) is a legend, as is the Dollar Trilogy and the early Bud Spencer and Terence Hill movies.

Great stuff. I'm almost certain this means we'll be getting The Sting (brilliant conman/heist caper with the handsome boys reunited!) sometime soon then. I get the impression that when this first came out no one had seen a western like this before - the playful tone, the 60s music, the "modern" dialogue, definitely that late 60s onwards era when filmmakers decided they could shake things up.

Etta Place did travel south with Butch and Sundance. She faded into the mist shortly after returning to the US. It is believed she went home to have a baby that had not been fathered by either of her two companions.

Both were killed in a shootout in Bolivia in 1908. Etta Place's fate is unknown. She is believed to have left her lover shortly before the end and returned to the states. Last known sighting 1909 in San Fransisco. The bodies of two Americans killed in a gunfight with police were identified as being the outlaws by someone from a bank they robbed. Their bodies have never been positively found and identified and there is an unsubstantiated rumour that they both survived and returned to the states although this is considered highly unlikely. The Hole-in-the-Wall site is in Wyoming.

It’s interesting for me to think about them dying in 1908. My dad’s oldest brother was born in 1908. History isn’t as old as we sometimes think.

Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid were absolutely real historical figures (as was Etta Place) and probably the last of the famous wild west outlaws. One thing that's different from the film is that when they fled to South America in 1901 they originally went to Argentina where it seems they made a genuine attempt to go straight by purchasing a ranch. However two English-speaking bandits held up the Banco de Tarapacá y Argentino in Río Gallegos on February 14 1905. Although this was never confirmed to be Butch and Sundance they were widely suspected. Also the Pinkerton Detective Agency who had tracked them in America had been aware of their location for some time. In May 1905 they sold their ranch and fled to Chile. It was whilst they were in Chile that Etta decided to leave as she'd become tired of life on the run. The two obtaining work as payroll guards also happen during their time in Chile. It was in late 1907 that they eventually travelled to Bolivia and it seems they still intended to settle down as legitimate ranchers. On November 3rd 1908 a payroll was robbed by two masked American bandits in San Vincente, Bolivia. This was believed to be Butch and Sundance. It was just 3 days later in San Vincente where Butch and Sundance were surrounded by the authorities. It's believed that Sundance was wounded in the exchange of gunfire and that eventually with no way out and Sundance in great pain that Cassidy shot Sundance to put him out of his pain before Cassidy took his own life. Of course there's been speculation that Butch and Sundance actually faked their deaths and returned quietly to America under new aliases but this is highly unlikely to be true. But on the whole this is a great film and really broke a lot of the traditional formula of the Western genre.

Once a year a couple of hours away from where I live, they give a jeep tour of the hideout of the hole in the wall gang. it’s like this little oasis up in the barren mountains. Interesting to see remnants where they actually lived.

The trackers, just like their unseen employer Mr. E.H. Harriman of the Union Pacific, were all faceless menaces. Cold, impersonal, almost inhuman forces. The opposite of the very human Butch and Sundance.

Another great reaction to a great movie. You can never go wrong watching a movie with Redford or Newman in it let alone both in the same movie. Katharine Ross was an excellent choice for playing Etta Place who was actually the outlaws companion. She was about 21, 22 when she first met Sundance in 1899

The Image of Butch and Sundance, just before they are killed, became one of the Most Popular Posters of all time. A very large percentage of Women of All Ages had that Poster hanging in there Bedrooms! Robert Redford and Paul Newman were 2 of the biggest Male Film Stars of the era. Redford bought a huge piece of land in Utah, where this movie was made calling his Ranch Sundance. He also founded the "Sundance Film Festival"

The Rocky Mountains used to be honeycombed with hidden trails and hidey-holes from New Mexico to Alberta, known and used by many outlaws in the wild west. For this reason, it was nicknamed 'The Outlaw Trail,' and had entry and exit points near every settlement along its length, some more-or-less sympathetic to the free-spending ways of successful criminals.

🎵 Among many other things, this film is noteworthy for being the first A-list film that Burt Bacharach finally got a chance to score. Prior to this, he had done the score for about a dozen lower tier films like "Love In A Goldfish Bowl," "Wives & Lovers," "What's New Pussycat," "Promise Her Anything," "After The Fox" and "Casino Royale." The fact that none of the music has anything remotely resembling a western feel to it was deliberate. The incongruity of them being chased around the old west while a modern chorus is scat-singing some jazzy stuff in the background was a first (and as far as I know, a last) attempt at artsy-fartsiness that film critics found rather amusing at the time. Be sure to check out "The Sting" (1973). In that film, Robert Redford is the clean shaven one and Paul Newman is the one with a mustache. 🤠

Amazing masterpiece I love this film Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid directed by George Roy Hill starring Paul Newman, Robert Redford, Katharine Ross and music score by Burt Bacharach. The song "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" single by B.J. Thomas won an Oscar for best original song. Thank you Jen great reaction excellent😊😊👍👍

Thanks for choosing this, Jen. One of my favorite movies with Robert Redford is the more recent "An Unfinished Life," which also stars Jennifer Lopez and Morgan Freeman. I second the recommendation of Cool Hand Luke as a Paul Newman movie. I also like the later "Nobody's Fool," with Bruce Willis and Melanie Griffith.

Great reaction again Jen. I'm not sure if anyone mentioned yet, but the Sundance Film Festival was created by Robert Redford, and he named the film festival after the Sundance character in this movie. On another not - I did not know your sister did reactions too. I have seen her on here with you, but never made the connection that a few reactions i did on her channel was her! I finally figured it out after watching her Field of Dreams reaction.

Robert Redford, The Sundance Kid, became the founder of the SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL; an easy way to remember who's who. The Hole in the Wall was in Wyoming, closer to the port of San Francisco; why did the trio go all the way to New York City to catch a ship to Bolivia, which is toward the western coast of South America? Lots of wasted money and mileage.

The Sundance Kid IS the younger guy. Robert Redford is eleven years younger than Paul Newman. Though the real Sundance Kid was only about a year younger than Butch Cassidy.
