- Oklahoma, 1893. After the Dalton Gang was partially wiped out in Coffeyville , Kansas, and after their many years together, the outlaw gang led by Bill Doolin (Burt Lancaster) and Bill Dalton (Scott Glenn), who had given up robbing trains and moved on to robbing banks, is about to disband. But when two teenage girls filled with the romance of stories about outlaws in the West, on a quest to meet and join up with them, show up, the gang is revived.
The girls find a shadow of the former gang. The outlaws are the demoralized remnants of the "Doolin-Dalton gang", led by Bill Doolin. Although disappointed, Anna Emmaline McDoulet, or "Cattle Annie" (Amanda Plummer), shames and inspires the men to become what she had imagined them to be. The younger sister (but historically not a relative) Jennie Stevens or "Little Britches" (Diane Lane) finds a father figure in Doolin, who in the story line coined her nickname "Little Britches".
Jenny and Annie help the men plan a series of robberies, but this new activity draws the interest of a vigorous lawman, U.S. Marshal Bill Tilghman (Rod Steiger), who is determined to bring them all to justice.
Doolin's efforts to live up to the girls' vision of him lead him to be carted off in a cage to an Oklahoma jail, where he waits to be hanged. With the help of the girls and the gang, Doolin escapes and rides off to safety with his men. The girls are triumphant, but they cannot escape vigilant Marshal Tilghman and are sent back East to the reformatory in Framingham, Massachusetts.
A 1981 American Western film directed by Lamont Johnson, produced by Rupert Hitzig, Alan King and David Korda, adapted for the screen by David Eyre and Robert Ward, based on Robert Ward's book of the same name, cinematography Larry Pizer, starring Burt Lancaster, John Savage, Diane Lane, Amanda Plummer, Rod Steiger, John Savage, Buck Taylor, and Perry Lang. Screen debut appearances for Amanda Plummer, daughter of Tammy Grimes and Christopher Plummer, and Steven Ford, the son of former U.S. President Gerald Ford. Final screen appearance of Judy Nugent. She played the uncredited girl on horse riding into lake.
Hollywood legends Burt Lancaster and Rod Steiger make their only joint film appearance.
Burt Lancaster's final Western film.During production, Lancaster had hepatitis and collapsed from a mild heart attack due to a bile duct blockage. According to his daughter, Joanna, who was on set, they returned to Los Angeles and an ambulance met them at the airport. It was 105 °F (41 °C) in temperature, and the ambulance broke down on the way to the hospital. "He got out and pushed,” she recalled. “I couldn’t get him to behave.
Filmed in 1979, John Wayne had been offered this atmospheric twilight western in 1978, but said he felt too ill.The cast and crew were filming at John Wayne's ranch in Durango, Mexico, when it was announced that the veteran star had died in Los Angeles. They held a one-minute silence in his honor.
Cattle Annie and Little Britches were two real-life adolescent girls in late 19th-century Oklahoma Territory, who became infatuated with the Western outlaws they had read about in Ned Buntline's stories, and left their homes to join the criminals. Cattle Annie and Little Britches were convicted as horse thieves and sentenced to serve their time back East, at the Farmington Reform School, in Massachusetts. Little Britches was released early, for good behavior, in October 1896, with Cattle Annie following 18 months later, in April 1898.
The real William Tilghman wrote, directed and appeared in the film "Passing of the Oklahoma Outlaws" (1915).
This oater was favorably reviewed by critic Pauline Kael in The New Yorker, "The cinematography [by Larry Pizer] is vivid … the colors are strikingly crisp and intense. The dialogue and most of the incidents have a neat, dry humor. It's a wonderful, partly true story … there are some wonderful performances. As Bill Doolin, Lancaster (who made the film before Atlantic City) is a gent surrounded by louts - a charmer. When he talks to his gang, he uses the lithe movements and the rhythmic, courtly delivery that his Crimson Pirate had when he told his boys to gather round. In his scenes with Diane Lane, the child actor who appeared in New York in several of Andrei Serban's stage productions, and who single handedly made the film A Little Romance almost worth seeing, Lancaster has an easy tenderness that is never overdone. Lancaster looks happy in the movie and still looks tough: it's an unbeatable combination. Young Amanda Plummer gives a scarily brilliant performance".
William Doolin (1858-96) was the leader of an outlaw gang called The Doolin-Dalton Gang, The Wild Bunch, and The Oklahoma Long Riders (from the long dusters they wore).
This moving account of the last days of Bill Doolin's gang and the teen girls who joined them is an enjoyable, utterly charming, old-fashioned family Western. This sleeper is ready to be discovered, and is one to savor.
When you put together a worthy story and first class performers, you may come out with a charming result. It's all right in this film!
Glad you enjoyed it! Welcome.
Can't go wrong with Burt Lancaster in the lead role. He's one of a kind for sure. And always a class act.
Thats for sure. My mothr loved Burt Lancaster
I agree
Welcome.
Absolutely.
It's a good entertaining movie, and of course Burt Lancaster. Is a superb actor of his time and my favourite.
Welcome.
Yeah agreed, my favourite actor also.
I've had the fortune to work with several of the cast members of this little Western through the years and folks like Scott Glenn, William 'Rusty' Russ and Jerry Gatlin are truly gentlemen in my book.
Don -- if we ever talk, remind me to tell you my Burt Lancaster story on a picture he produced and starred in that a long ago mentor, Alan Sharp wrote and ultimately directed.
Stay frosty today, it's gonna be 114F today in lower Oregon. Gotta wonder what it's like in EL-Aaaa and all that Summer smog.
D.A.
Memories that still inspire the "pinch me I'm dreaming" when we chance to ponder them, and a "God knows, I truly appreciated it in the moment and now upon reflection".
I'm an individual who believes "we are Souls having a Human Journey", "for the Experiences with the senses", and that we agree to a template of "to be experienced".
Yet, most all lose the memory of who/what we are upon our emergence into the 3D at birth, and we are truly "experiencing in the day to day, in/from the Human perspective".
Thus, we really manage a variety of choices, and occasionally I feel we also have woven some truly delightful opportunities for ourself to experience.
We don't do it alone really, but We are driving the vessel, and when we "get it", we can really live it with creative delights and heartfelt appreciation".
I've had a similar chapter, still appreciate them, and I intend to have new ones.
My perspective is defined in part through the "Universal Laws", particularly the "Universal Law of Attraction".

Nice-! Been developing a story for a year and half with a producer. Now writing the screenplay. I'll keep you posted. Dana @@DonaldPBorchersOG
@@MeBeTheDB Hope you have better luck than me. I have a completed screenplay with major agency support (scripts to actors without offers, etc.) and still no distributor. Break a leg!
Another Great Western Don, thanks!!
You are welcome.
An absolutely wonderful film in so many respects. Very enjoyable, indeed...Many Thanks !!
Glad you enjoyed it! Welcome.
Crazy! Hard to recognize, the girl from Pulp Fiction and the guy from fistful of dynamite, Sergio Leon!
Welcome.
Incredible movie and cast Bill Lancaster is the greatest, so are the girls
Thanks for watching.
Excellent movie. Thanks.

Part of the movie was filmed on John Wayne's ranch. He died before the filming was complete

I recognized the chick Amanda Plummer and it took me awhile to figure it out she's from the restaurant scene in Pulp Fiction
Yes First Movie I Seen Her Besides Pulp Fiction 😊 HONNEY BUNNY😊
Yes. This was her screen debut. Welcome.
Great movie!!!!
Glad you like it. Welcome.
top shelf movie
I don't think Burt read the script on this one.

I don't think he cared anymore, at this point in his career.

Omg Diane Lane was just a lil baby when she was hired for this role
I first saw Diane Lane in George Roy Hill's "A Little Romance" (1979).
😅😂😊 I Noticed That Too 😂 Such a Cutie ❤
More than 60 years ago, I read comic strips about the Daltons. How fast time has passed for me and I have grown old and they are now younger than me….
Fond memories. Welcome. You might enjoy this one, too: ua-cam.com/video/h4l5WH9pXJU/v-deo.html
Isn't that the truth. For the first time in my life I have a boss who is younger than me.
One day you look around and realize you are one of the old ones now. The younger generations will find their way same as we did. It's their world now.
Thanks Donald for uploading the movie.
Welcome.
Another excellent Movie starring Burt Lancaster, plus a great cast with him.
Welcome.
Closed caption is so funny, when he says, 'butts full of double-aught', cc says, 'butts full of devil alone'!
Omg, well, this is a great western, I seen maybe a yr ago😊. Those two paragraphs in descript. when Lancaster was sick, then 'The Duke' passing during filming of this are a great addition!
Diane Lane, so sweet in 'The Outsiders'👍🏼🤘🏼
LOL. Do better with your CC translations You Tube👺 🤣
@@badday5468 haha, there's someone in some country I've never heard of, doing the cc...oh well, they need a payck too😎
@@mannybravo237😊
Welcome.
Never saw or heard of this movie, and I'm stunned by the underlying suttle points in it. Most interesting.
Excellent Movie.
Welcome. I'm going to take a wild guess and suggest you might like this old one, as well: ua-cam.com/video/h4l5WH9pXJU/v-deo.html
Yeah I agree, I don't think justice was done to this movie when it came out. Whoever was the publicist for this great movie, fell down on the job. Burt Lancaster makes any movie he is in, all the better for it.
@@barrygioportmorien1 Roger that.
Roger Ebert called it a buried treasure
@@TransparencyandMerit
It definitely is that.
Rod Steiger. Looks Great. Then. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks for the visit!
My goodness me!
What a delightful romp of colourful, likeable villains, on both sides of the law.
Everything you could expect of a Western; not polished; but a real treasure.
Thanks for putting it where I could stumble over it.

Right?! Thanks for the visit!
😊😅😂First Time I Seen "HONEY BUNNY" ACCTING IN A MOVIE BESIDES PULP FICTION 😅😂😊
Yes. Her screen debut.
The introductory title song and main theme were obviously strongly inspired by Dylan's "John Wesley Harding", to put it mildly.
Yes. Often the editor will use a song that the producer can't afford and the composer is asked to recreate the same thing, originally. My best guess is that this was the case here. Thanks for the visit!
Awesome Movie, Thank you very much
Glad you enjoyed it

I found an interview with Scott Glenn online. He said he and his wife both fell in love with Burt the day they met him before shooting this. Burt could see right away that Glenn had potential but had never worked in front of a camera before, and spent the entire shoot teaching what he knew. If you go over on Internet Archive and watch Desert Fury, the first film he ever made (but not the first to be released), well, he already had it. 45 years of experience went into what Burt taught Glenn.
I love Burt to death. I've seen all but 10 of the 87 films he made, some for TV. He never did sequels; he never did remakes except for films of stage plays. He did 13 westerns. All his war movies were actually anti-war movies, if you pay attention. He repeatedly did roles that fought bigotry; he was a friend to MLK, ran fund-raisers for him in 63 and 65 and made a speech of his own at the Lincoln Memorial, introduced by Ossie Davis. He went to the funeral and got the family permission to get King: a Film Record done. His last film was about the SCOTUS decision that overturned segregation. He was brilliant and more educated than almost all of us. He was one of a kind.
Thanks for sharing. Welcome.
His last film was actually Field of Dreams; an excellent movie.
@@DarlinAkaDarlene Yes. And then he finished his career making final screen appearance in 3 TV mini series, and one TV movie.
Wasn't the singing great. Ah. No. 😂
Ha! Thanks for the visit!
Very bizarre movie. Rambling dialogue, like they just kept filming, seeing what happened, said whatever came into their heads as they went along. The very premise of two underage girls traveling along with a gang of outlaws makes one wonder where their heads were at. I certainly can't see any deep meaning in this one, beyond a nice big paycheck.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
BURT LANCASTER was unique actor with over powering voice,always admired him n considered him one of best in that great ERA.
Roger that. Welcome.
Oh ! Que pena , esse filme n ser legendado. Tenho mais de 40 dvds d Burt Lancaster, falta esse n minha coleção 🙏😔
