Etta Place (Katharine Ross), former lover of the outlaw known as the Sundance Kid, lives in anonymity with a former Hole-In-The-Wall gang member (Michael Constantine) and his wife (Katherine Helmond). But she has a bounty on her head and it isn't long before a lawman (Steve Forrest) tracks her down. Directed by Lee Philips (WINDMILLS OF THE GODS). A highly fictionalized or rather a totally fabricated account of Etta Place's life after she left Bolivia after the Sundance Kid was killed. This telefilm has her get involved with the Mexican revolution and romancing Pancho Villa (Hector Elizondo). As it is, it's a conventional western, certainly no worse than BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID (sorry, I'm not a fan) with Ross reprising her role as Etta Place. There are two supporting performances that stand out: Elizondo as Pancho Villa and Stella Stevens as an ex-prostitute now running a respectable boarding house. With Steve Forrest, Warren Berlinger and Lucille Benson.
