The Three Outlaws

This is basically "just another" low-budget western from the fifties. Butch Cassidy and the Kid go to Mexico, trying to become legit. Alas, they are forced back into their outlaw ways.

Yeah, well, Redford and Neuman it 'aint. There is very little insight into any of the characters' personalities. It's pretty much based purely on action. However, It is a few notches above most of the shlock westerns from that period, having a solid story line, decent acting, and tight direction / editing.

Odd to see Alan Hale (The skipper from Gilligan's island) as a leading man. He does OK, but was certainly did not have "star" quality and is in fact this films main downfall.

Well, this is a flick that will pass the time, but don't go out of your way to see it.

There are no credits given for the song or the singer for the ballad with which this movie begins, either at the beginning or end of the film itself or here at IMDb. I assume Paul Dunlop at least wrote it since he is credited with songs for other western films.

If anyone finds out the name of the singer, please post it. He's not bad.

I'm amazed anyone else saw this. I caught it by accident on the Western Channel (Starz) and surprised that a film boasting Neville Brand, plus other famous character actors like Alan Hale, Jr. and Bruce Bennett would be so unknown.
