This excellent movie is directed by Sam Peckinpah. It stars Steve McQueen as Doc McCoy, who is serving time at a Texas penitentiary when the film opens. Doc can't take the monotony of prison life and also desperately misses his wife Carol (Ali MacGraw), so he makes a deal with the powerful Jack Benyon (Ben Johnson) to get him paroled.
After gaining his freedom, Doc is hired by Benyon to hit a small local bank. He reluctantly agrees to use Rudy (Al Lettieri) and Frank (Bo Hopkins), a couple of Benyon's men for the job. Inevitably, things go wrong and Doc and Carol are on the run with a million dollars. They are being pursued not only by the law and Benyon's men, but by Rudy who Doc left for dead after the heist.
