Blackthorn

Opens Friday, Oct 7, 2011 Synopsis: Longtime screenwriter Mateo Gil (Open Your Eyes, The Sea Inside) returns to the director's chair for his second feature, a continuation of the Butch Cassidy saga that finds the famed outlaw embarking on one last adventure in the quest to meet his son for the very first time. Twenty years after he presumably perished in a violent gun fight, Butch (Sam Shepard) learns that he has a son in the U.S. Returning home to meet his boy won't be easy, though, because a quick-draw cowboy (Eduardo Noriega) is about to take Butch on the ride of his life. Meanwhile, an obsessive ex-railroad employee (Stephen Rea) is closing in on Butch, and preparing to pull the trigger. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Sam Shepard, Eduardo Noriega, Stephen Rea, Magaly Solier Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review
