Barbarosa
Barbarosa is a 1982 motion picture starring Willie Nelson and Gary Busey about a young cowboy on the run from the law who partners with a famous bandito and learns about life from him. One of the best overlooked westerns of the lastyears according to reviewer LG Writer, and featured on an episode of the television show Siskel amp Ebert dedicated to uncovering worthy sleepers, it is a tale of betrayal, vendetta, honor, and dignity. Barbarosa was the first American film by noted Australian director Fred Schepisi.
Karl makes his way to a small pueblo and finds a grubby cantina. He is enjoying his first good meal in a long time and receiving the attentions of his first working girl ever when Barbarosa bursts in and robs everyone at gunpoint. Filling his sombrero with loot, Barbarosa instructs Karl to gather the rest, and steals away while everyone is bemused by Karls amateurish performance. Nevertheless, Karl escapes, and he and Barbarosa ride together for the winter while Karl learns the life of an outlaw adventurer.Karl is being pursued by Floyd and Otto Pahmeyer, the brothers of the man he killed, sent by their vengeful father. They are naive farm boys as Karl once was, and Karl and Barbarosa easily get the drop on them. Again to Barbarosas disgust, Karl leaves them alive and tells them to go home. They say they cant, being more afraid of their father than the banditos. You know how Papa gets, they tell Karl, and hike off to replace their guns and resume the chase. ........
