Film Clip from the Butch Cassidy Western BLACKHORN
Magnolia Pictures has released a great film clip for their up coming new Butch Cassidy western... Blackhorn. The film stars Sam Shepard as an older Butch Cassidy that ended up surviving the standoff with the Bolivian military in 1908, which is where it was believed he was killed. This movie tells the story of his fictionalized last great adventure. This looks like it could be a solidly good western drama, and I'm looking forward to watching it.
Here's the Synopsis:
It's been said (but unsubstantiated) that Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid were killed in a standoff with the Bolivian military in 1908. In BLACKTHORN, Cassidy (Shepard) survived, and is quietly living out his years under the name James Blackthorn in a secluded Bolivian village. Tired of his long exile from the US and hoping to see his family again before he dies, Cassidy sets out on the long journey home. But when an unexpected encounter with an ambitious young criminal (Eduardo Noriega) derails his plans, he is thrust into one last adventure, the likes of which he hasn't experienced since his glory days with the Sundance Kid.
The film hits Video on Demand on Friday, September 2, and theaters on October 7th. Check out the clip below and tell us what you think!
