Long before they were immortalized on screen by Paul Newman and Robert Redford, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid captivated Americans from coast to coast. In the 1890s, their thrilling exploits — robbing western banks and trains and then seemingly vanishing into thin air — became front-page news and the basis of rumor and myth. But who were Robert Leroy Parker and Harry Alonzo Longabaugh? What really happened after they formed the Wild Bunch gang? And how did they manage to pull off some of the most spectacular holdups in western history while eluding the Pinkertons, the nation's largest and most feared private detective force? Separating fact from fiction, the latest installment of the popularAmerican Experience series The Wild West explores the last pair of outlaws to flee on horseback into the setting sun of a vanishing West. Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid, produced and directed by John Maggio, premieres on American Experience on Tuesday, February 11, 2014, 9:00-10:00 p.m. ET on PBS (check local listings), preceded by an encore presentation of Billy the Kid, also directed by Maggio, at 8:00 p.m. ET on PBS.
