Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here (1969) – DVD | Robert Redford | Robert Blake | Western Drama
A manhunt. A love story. And a tragedy that was inevitable from the start. Directed by Abraham Polonsky in his triumphant return after years on the Hollywood blacklist, Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here is a powerful and deeply moving 1969 Western drama based on a true story. When a young Native American man kills in self-defense and flees into the California desert with his girlfriend, a relentless sheriff leads a posse in pursuit — and what begins as a manhunt becomes a meditation on race, justice, and the American West.
Starring Robert Redford as the conflicted sheriff and Robert Blake in a searing performance as Willie Boy, with Katharine Ross as his doomed love, this is a rare and essential piece of late-60s Hollywood cinema. A must-own collectible DVD for fans of Robert Redford and classic revisionist Westerns.
