Ever wondered about the allure of the open road, the thrill of defying the system, and the intricate dance between family and crime? "The Newton Boys," a cinematic portrayal of a real-life family of bank robbers, delivers a potent dose of all three, making it a must-see for anyone intrigued by tales of audacious heists and the bonds that bind.
The film, inspired by Claude Stanush's 1994 book of the same name, dives into the lives of the Newton Gang, a family hailing from Uvalde, Texas, who etched their names into history as some of the most successful bank and train robbers of their time. Their success wasn't born of brute force or wanton violence, but rather meticulous planning and a code that, remarkably, minimized harm. The movie, directed by Richard Linklater, masterfully blends elements of a classic heist film with a poignant family drama, making for a compelling narrative that resonates long after the credits roll. The premiere of 'The Newton Boys' in Texas, with Matthew McConaughey back on home ground, added to the film's authentic Texan feel.
