Notes on Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

- Why aren't more movies shot in sepia? The first scene works so well in it.

- Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid are two pretty wicked names that work brilliantly together. Outlaws never seemed to have problems picking good names though.

- I wish I had Paul Newman's eyes, and every day came with some surprise.

- Half of this movie looks like a Turner painting. The cinematography here is truly astonishing.

- Bandidos Yanquis would be a pretty great bandname.

- Katharine Ross is jawdroppingly beautiful in this.

- I always thought that classic rock band Sir Lord Baltimore was named after some 18th century statesman.

- I wish I had Paul Newman's eyes, that would be nice.
