Editing Guidelines |
Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article:
- If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film)
- When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references.
- Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

[edit] Plan to redo article
This article consists almost entirely of a plot summary. It should have a "spoiler" icon added. The Plot summary should be condensed. Process is started.
I was reading an early biography on Robert Redford in a local San Antonio, Texas library. This film was briefly mentioned. Apparently, Robert Redford and Katherine Ross acted in "Tell Them Willie Boy is Here" before they acted in the more popular film "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid." "Willie Boy"'s distibutor, Universal, did know what to make of the film, with its revisionist, and political tone for a western or how to market it upon completion of filming. Thus, "Willie Boy" sat in the Universal vault for a year and a half. The huge success of "Butch Cassidy" convinced Universal to immediately release the film upon an unsuspecting public. Many thought they would see Redford and Ross in scenes together recreating the magic seen in the previously released "Butch Cassidy." Alas, Redford and Ross only have one scene together, and Ross is protraying a dead woman killed by a gunshot and Redford is examining Ross' corpse.
