- Classic romantic melodrama about three convicted killers, Bowie (Carradine), Chicamaw (Schuck), and T-Dub (Remsen), who escape prison in 1937 rural Mississippi. Bowie, the youngest of the fugitives, meets and falls for an ingenuous farmgirl, Keechie (Duvall). The gang quickly turns to the only thing they know, bank robbery. The press closely follows the desperados notorious exploits, which include a serious car accident, another jail break, and several killings. Louis Fletcher, in her film debut, plays Remsen's sister-in-law. Gloomy, verisimilitudinous Depression-era atmosphere, expressive performances, and strong characterization, but derivative from They Live by Night (1948).
