2 Fast 2 Forever #382 – Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)
Our first pit stop this lap is Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, which lent heavy inspiration for Chris Morgan’s screenplay for Fast Five. We talk about whether or not “The Sundance Kid and Butch Cassidy” has bad mouth feel, whether Paul Newman and Robert Redford are more evocative of Vin Diesel and Paul Walker or George Clooney and Brad Pitt, and why so much time in this movie is spent watching Newman do tricks on a bicycle. Joe explains why he was underwhelmed by this movie. Joey talks about what dictates the success or failure of this movie. We find a new way, sort of, to play the Letterboxd game.
