The Monday Film: Billy Two Hats

on BBC One London

starring Gregory Peck Desi Amaz Jr
This tense and unusual Western interweaves an exciting chase story with a study of racial prejudice. Billy, a half-breed, and Deans, an ageing, fellow outlaw, are on the run after a bank robbery. Their pursuer,
Sheris Gisord is motivated not only by political ambition but by hatred of the Indian. His vicious incomprehension at the bond between the two men, counterpoints the action as the outlaws struggle for a freedom impossible in an intolerant society.
Screenplay by ALAN SHARP
Produced by NORMAN JEWISOX and PATRICK PALMER
Directed by TEC KOTCHEFF . FitnM: pace 7 (First showing on British Television)
