Revisiting Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid


last nite or well tonight right now I guess Turner Classic Movies is showing Butch Cassidy and The Sundance kid. If your woundering it's still a good movie. They showed it in widescreen. Which is great consider Conrad Hall who is probably the best director of photography ever shot it.
Of course the chemistry between Redford and Newman is amazing and was better here then it ever was later in the sting. The wit between the two is really really good.
Also this movie is a hell of a lot of fun. It's probably one of the few fun movies not including Radiers that is an excellent made film as well.
The music is ridcioulous to listen to now but I'm assuming in 1969 (when the film came out) that was top 40. You see butch and sundance riding on there horses and then a chrous kinda hums and says ba ditty ditty dum dum. it's werid. I think the hidden cameras probably really like this movie too.

Also how did Katherine Ross get to be in the graduate and this she must have been huge back then cause both of those films were gigantic.
