In honor of Robert Duvall, you should watch Lonesome Dove. Best Western ever!
Larry
To answer your question, I don’t have a favorite. They’re great together as a team.
Larry
Great reaction! Also, thank you for translating! It’s not historically known if they were actually killed by the Bolivian army. That’s one of the popular theories, and that’s what the film depicted, but it’s never been confirmed. There was a prequel called “Butch and Sundance: The Early Days” I don’t think it was good. I tried watch it. I didn’t get through it. There was a TV series that was loosely based on this movie called “Alias Smith and Jones” with characters similar to Butch and Sundance. I used to watch it.

Struthers Martin acted with Paul Newman in Cool Hand Luke

Raindrops keep falling on my head was originally offered to Ray Stevens, he turned it down, BJ Thomas, a relative unknown, took it to #1

please react to the sting

Because of their great chemistry it always feels like Robert Redford and Paul Newman made multiple movies together even though , they only made two. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid of course and The Sting both directed by George Roy Hill I know this will be an awesome reaction Coby !!😄🤘

Ted Cassidy also played "Lurch" in the original "Addam's Family" TV show.

It's the edited reaction for YouTube. We get to talk about it here rather than (or in addition to) on YouTube.

Looking forward to your YT reaction of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. I’m expecting there a few times it distressed you, especially when Sundance shot a rattlesnake. He did it in self defense. Hope that didn’t distress you too much. Otherwise, I’m predicting that you loved the movie overall. Looking forward to seeing. Fun facts: one of the supporting actors was Ted Cassidy. The rather tall guy. So there was an actor named Cassidy (no relation) in “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.” Similarly one of the supporting actors in Tombstone was Wyatt Earp III, a distant relative of the Wyatt Earp.

Can someone tell me what a "discussion group" entails? How is it different from an upload of an edited reaction for YT?
Coby Connell
Eeeek! Thank you Wally!!! 🙏🏻
Wally Hartshorn
Coby, I think you mistakenly titled this as a full watch along rather than as a discussion group.

William Goldman won Best Original Screenplay for this one and Best Adapted Screenplay for "All the President's Men," which is sadly again germane. He also wrote the novel and screenplay for "The Princess Bride," which, if you've never seen, is a must. It also has Peter Falk.
