	DVD Review - Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Based on the real life of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, the film manages to keep audiences enthralled for its entire running length and paints a harsh, yet romantic, picture of the Wild West on the brink of becoming less wild than it used to be.
