    Can't believe we're doing four interlacing movies about The Beatles, which will inevitably be generic musician biopics, when we could do the same for The Highwaymen and it would be the most fascinating movie experience since Lord of the Rings.

    Kris Kristofferson (1936–2024) was an American singer‑songwriter, actor, and Rhodes Scholar whose raw, poetic writing reshaped outlaw country. Known for “Me and Bobby McGee,” he became a film star and member of The Highwaymen, leaving a lasting mark on music and cinema.

    “Shoot a couple, the rest will go home. I promise,” said one meme, featuring a photograph of Kevin Costner’s character in The Highwaymen, a 2019 film about Texas rangers tracking down Bonnie and Clyde, holding a shotgun. “HANG THE TRAITORS, EXPEL THE INVADERS,” said another post.

    Willie was there a long time…but he made the right move. Cash…I need to do some reading that’s not hagiography. Because other than The Highwaymen, it’s bleak from the late 70’s until Rick Rubin. (Still a talented guy. Starred in some tv movie dramas that were legit good)

    #OTD in 2019 the film The Highwaymen premiered on Netflix. The film dramatizes #TexasRaners Frank Hamer and Maney Gault’s hunt for Bonnie and Clyde, and celebrates the Rangers’ seemingly unique ability to “take down” dangerous criminals. /1

    I just watched the movie "The Highwaymen" based on the untold story of the lawmen who stopped Bonnie and Clyde. I guess that things haven't changed so much. The general public's infatuation with despicable human beings is universal.

    They were massive news. Cult heroes. 20’s depression, kids from poor backgrounds robbing banks and living the high life as a big fuck you. ‘The Highwaymen’ is the best movie. Well worth watching. Far better than the 70s one.

    Check out The Highwaymen w Costner and Woody Harrelson. It’s a corrective to the very thing you describe. for most of the film you just see the destruction they’ve caused. by the time we see barrow and Parker it’s from a distance and they appear hideous.

    Told from the Rangers’ perspective, The Highwaymen positions itself as a ‘corrective’ to Bonnie and Clyde’s romantic Robin Hood image. It responds to the 1967 film Bonnie And Clyde, which depicts the outlaws as glamorous anti-heroes in the spirit of the ‘60s. /3

    Have you seen The Highwaymen, the relatively recent (and rather unfairly ignored) film with Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson? B&C are the driving force even though they barely appear. It gets the feel of the period right, I reckon.

It has a low budget, but it has a low budget that is very well and very very well disguised in a way that can best be described as pro-talent. It looks good, it looks like the 30s.

    Tracking down Bonnie & Clyde Based on the real story, two renowned retired Texas Rangers (Kevin Costner & Woody Harrelson) are commissioned to track down and execute Bonnie & Clyde in 1934 after other authorities have failed. “The Highwaymen” (1983) is a great counterbalance to the 1967 movie with Beatty & Dunaway, which painted the thugs more sympathetically, as well as the excellent “Bonnie & Clyde: The True Story” (1992).
