The Outlaw Trail with Robert Redford

Bad Company / by Bad Company / 1974
Co-written by Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke

I thought this was a 3 part documentary!? Guess not.
Don’t know where I got that notion?
Maybe I was hoping that was the case.
The most interesting thing I gleaned from Redford’s research on these “Badguys” is that this was a ‘Way of Life’ and a culture that surrounded these guys and what they did. I always figured they were just a bunch of directionless thugs who couldn’t do anything useful. Not saying this excused what they did, but there was a whole support system
surrounding what they were doing.
