About Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here
While confronting the disapproving father of his girlfriend, Lola (Katharine Ross), Native American man Willie Boy (Robert Blake) kills the man in self-defense. Forced to go on the run, the couple is pursued by Deputy Sheriff Christopher Cooper (Robert Redford), who is somewhat empathetic to their plight, and a group of cold, calculating bounty hunters. As the pursuit continues, the situation grows increasingly tense, with Willie Boy and Cooper headed for a standoff.
