Over the past few years, moviegoers have become rather reticent to remakes, but what about an unexpected sequel to a film classic? One of the nicest surprises at this years's Tribeca Film Festival was Mateo Gil's Blackthorn , which just happened to be an unexpected sequel to George Hill's 1969 Western classic Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid , starring Paul Newman and Robert Redford, working under the plot device that they didn't really die at the end of that movie. It stars Sam Shepard as Butch Cassidy, now living as a rancher in Bolivia under the name James Blackthorn who is now ready to return to the States, plans that get derailed when he encounters a Spaniard, played by Eduardo Noriega, who has come upon a large sum of money stolen from a mining company.
