When one of their gang is killed in a shootout, the four remaining young criminals stop to ponder her life as they bury her in the wilderness, sentimental music playing in the background. The original outlaw is Marjoe Gortner, a long forgotten cult actor once the subject of a documentary and supporting player in various movies of the 70's and TV shows into the 80's. He's joined by the future Wonder Woman, the beautiful Lynda Carter, and later by her sister Merrie Lynn Ross, her boyfriend Jesse Vint and the sweet but tragic Belinda Balaski.
Definitely made as an anti-establishment commentary on the dissatisfaction of young people, this is actually much better than I expected, and as vile as their crimes are, there's the guilt ridden hope that the viewer has in hoping they get away with everything. There were many others of this genre in the turbulent 70's, but often they didn't have good scripts, decent performances or above average production values. This has all of thar, as well as fascinating minor characters played by non-actors who have seemed to have been pulled of the street.
