Alfred Hitchcock Presents, "Escape to Sonoita"

@Richard40171 I was thinking the same thing.

The twist ending saved an otherwise undistinguished ep. I'm curious about the staging of one scene, where both crooks turn their backs on the trio. That seems rather unusual, esp. considering they were saving bullets. They could easily have been jumped Reynolds & more so by him and his dad. At what point realism matters in a drama is relative, of course. One doesn't expect realism in NORTH BY NORTHWEST, for example.

A young Burt Reynolds and Harry Dean Stanton here.But Murray Hamilton steals the show.He was always a powerful and convincing actor,like john cassavetes,at playing evil,calculating scumbags.

@TheGatorfan93 Yes, he played the perfect a-hole, which he played to perfection in "Jaws".
