Synopsis by Rose of Sharon Winter

This film traces the history of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, a couple of bank robbers whose exploits with their Wild Bunch made them famous throughout the world. Cassidy and Henry Longbaugh, also known as the Sundance Kid, committed a string of robberies in Colorado, Utah, and Montana. Debate continues to this day as to whether they were killed in a shootout during a holdup, or went on to new lives in Bolivia. Period photography, reenactments, and expert commentary tell the story of these colorful gunmen of the Old West.
