Shortly after Michael J. Pollard exploded onto the scene in his Academy Award -nominated role in Bonnie and Clyde, the actor took on another folk hero and renegade, Billy the Kid, in his own inimitable style. Recounting Billy's formative years, this depiction of "The Kid" is stripped of the glamour and romance of legend. A stunning performance in a film that deserves to be rediscovered, directed by Stan Dragoti with support from Gary Busey, Richard Evans, and Lee Purcell. Newly remastered.
