My kid was watching this yesterday so I sat for a bit before work. Not bad, to me the guy from Cheers makes a good character.

I think it depends on the truth about the character he was playing.

I watched the movie last night and really enjoyed it. It wasn't so much about Bonnie and Clyde but the two agents tasked to hunt them down. In fact, you never saw Bonnie and Clyde in action or even what they looked like till the very end. and that was only briefly.

No sex, no gratuitous violence until the very end and that wasn't even close to being violent by today's standards.

I don't like Harrelson but I thought he did a good job in this movie as a lazy drunk called back into service by his old partner to hunt down Bonnie and Clyde.

Love the gun shop scene with Costner. GOOD film!

An instant classic! Absolutely awesome!

I'm sure there was license applied. Gault was older at the time of the chase. He didn't join the rangers until the age of 43 in 1929.

The rangers were disbanded in 1933, and he an Hamer were brought back on in '34, so that would make him 48 at the time of the manhunt.

Frank Hamer was 50 at the time of the manhunt. But I would guess 48 and 50 would FEEL like 68 and 70 after the lives they led !!

Fascinating story indeed.
