Western Wednesday: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

Decided to go Netflix for this Western Wednesday. Out of my 10 Westerns I want to see this year, this movie was the only one on my list that they had for streaming.   It was different and cool.  For being original, I give it props.  Butch and Sundance are a pair of crooks. They rob and kill if they have to.  They have some funny moments.  Good chemistry.   A group gets together to catch them. Everywhere they go, the group is there.  So it's little bit of a cat and mouse game.  They finally flee to Bolivia only to find no other escape.  Tragic ending but classic.
Overall, I thought it was pretty entertaining.   Slick and cool, especially the dialogue.  This is all about the characters.
