WE KNOW THEM AS Butch and Sundance. Prolific turn-of-the-century bank and train robbers, who so confounded E. H. Harriman, the owner of the Union Pacific Railroad, with their nonviolent, gloriously successful rampage that he actually tried negotiating with them before turning the relentless Pinkerton lawmen on them in an intercontinental chase from San Francisco to Argentina, Texas to Chile, and ultimately, as we famously learn, gunning them down in Bolivia. The epic story as told by George Roy Hill made Robert Redford a movie star and solidified Paul Newman as box office catnip, despite what some of the more effete critics had to say. With wit, charm, and a natural verbal sparring that only happens when the chemistry is just right, Newman and Redford were forever Butch and Sundance to multiple generations of fans. Redford’s ultimate tribute was made clear when he named the Sundance Film Festival after the brooding character developed by screenwriter William Goldman. Newman’s love for the creative, childlike Butch cut just as deep, which he captured with the launch of the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, created especially for children battling life-threatening illnesses. The legend and spirit of Butch and Sundance were meant to outlive the charming real-life desperados and their charismatic celluloid doppelgängers.
