Harry Tracy, Desperado (1982)


As the last survivor of the Wild Bunch Harry Tracy pulls off a series of profitable robberies before making his way west in search of a judge's daughter who has captured his heart.

Revisionist Western slightly in the romanticizing vein of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, although a bit slower paced and less exciting.

Maltin **1/2: "Laid-back but worthwhilefor Dern's fine performance and vivid re-creation of Western life at the turn of the 20th century."
