Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid (1969)
Original 20th Century Fox b&w photo still #135/5.
This film is a cornerstone of the Revisionist Western, a movement that dismantled the myth of the stoic, infallible cowboy in favour of flawed, witty, and deeply human characters. By incorporating a contemporary folk-rock soundtrack and natural dialogue, it bridged the gap between the Old West and the 1960s counterculture.
This scene takes place during a high-stakes train robbery, specifically the second heist of the Union Pacific "Flyer". Butch Cassidy (Paul Newman) is seen standing inside the train car, casually smoking a cigarette while surveying the aftermath of an explosion used to open the safe. This moment shows the film's central conflict: the outlaws' reliance on old-world ways while being relentlessly hunted by a modern, technologically superior "superposse".
