In the cache title there isn't a space between "and" and "the"; I ran out of allowable space. The cache is NOT at the above coordinates, but you will probably pass through that spot on your way to the cache. Terrain rating is based on hiking; it will be lower if you use one of those new-fangled bicycles like in the movie. BE SURE TO WRITE DOWN THE LETTER CODE ON THE LID OF THE CONTAINER, AND IN THE FRONT OF THE LOGBOOK (SAME CODE) WHICH IS USED IN THE “CLASSIC MOVIES" FINAL CACHE which is linked below.  Welcome to the sixth Classic Movies cache by the 3 Williams Kidz geo-team. The idea is that you will have to watch the movie to get the answers to the questions below; there are one, maybe two exceptions, for trivia’s sake. Since the entire script is available – and easily “searchable” -- online, I have tried to come up with questions that you cannot answer by searching the Internet, so some of these questions are pretty obscure. Here are all the geocaches in the Classic Movies series: 1. Casablanca 2. The Great Escape 3. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly 4. Cool Hand Luke 5. Patton 6. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid 7. The Godfather 8. High Noon 9. The Wizard of Oz 10. Gone With the Wind And the FINAL cache: Classic Movies FINAL cache If you are willing to watch one of Hollywood’s finest classic movies, get the TV and video player ready, maybe pop some popcorn, and have a pen and paper ready to answer the below questions, which are NOT IN THE ORDER they are presented in the film (just one part of the difficulty rating). The cache is located at North AB CD.EFG West HIJ KL.MNO Latitude: A: What is Butch's real name, according to actor Paul Newman? If Butch Cassidy, A=2. If Robert Leroy Parker, A=3. If Henry James Johnson, A=4. B: “Hey, Kid -- How good are ya?” If Sundance (Robert Redford) is right handed, B=8. If he is left handed, B=9. C: At the end of the bike ride, Butch and Etta (Katharine Ross) return to her house; they hug and kiss, and Sundance comes out of the house and asks: "What are ya doin'?" Butch replies: "Stealin' yer woman." Etta has a flower in her hair. If the flower is yellow, C=0. If the flower is green, C=1. If the flower is red, C=2. D: In the sepia-tone (old timey) still photograph montage of Butch, Sundance and Etta going to Bolivia, we see the name of a railroad they take on the side of a building. The railroad is the New-York and … WHAT? If PHILADELPHIA R.R., D=7. If HARLEM R.R., D=8. If SYRACUSE R.R., D=9. E: The Hole in the Wall Gang robs "The Flyer" for the first time; the train is Union Pacific, and has three digits in the train number. The first digit is E. F: In the sepia-tone (old timey) still photograph montage of Butch, Sundance and Etta going to Bolivia, we see them on a Coney Island Cable Car. The number of the cable car has three digits. The sum of the three digits is F. G: The train that the Hole in the Wall Gang robs more than once is "The Flyer". The full name of the train is what? If the Cross Country Flyer, G=2. If the Western Flyer, G=3. If the Overland Flyer, G=4.  Longitude: H: What is the Sundance Kid’s real name, according to Robert Redford? If Harry Longbaugh, H=1. If Henry Stimson, H=2. I: Butch takes Etta Place for a ride on the bicycle; early in the song, they reach up and pull something off of a tree. If it is an apple, I=0. If it is a flower, I=1. If it is a bunch of leaves, I=2. J: Etta says "… I won't watch you die; I'll miss that scene if you don't mind." In the following scene, both Butch and Sundance are wearing bowler hats that are what color? If light brown, J=3. If black, J=4. If white, J=5. K: The posse is being formed (not very successfully) to go after The Hole in the Wall Gang after they robbed the train the first time; Butch and Sundance are watching the sheriff trying to get the posse together. What are they both drinking? If champagne, K=3. If sasparilla, K=4. If beer, K=5. L: Butch is in the home of Etta Place, reading the newspaper that tells who the people tracking Butch and Sundance really are. The number of oil lamps that are lit and lighting the room they are in is L. M: Now in Bolivia and aboard the NACIONALES DE BOLIVIA train, Butch, Sundance and Etta arrive at the Santa Ines station, where they get off the train. The number of suitcases that Butch is carrying is M. N: Butch and Sundance both ride on one horse, in an attempt to confuse their pursuers (who ARE those guys?). While Butch and Sundance are on a ridge top, you can clearly see that there are 6 pursuers total by the lights/lanterns they are carrying (each is carrying one). The number of pursuers that split off and follow Sundance’s horse, but then rejoin the main group is N. O: What is the name of the first bank that Butch and Sundance walk into in Bolivia (which they do not rob -- at least not YET)? If BANCO DE BOLIVIA CENTRAL, O=6. If BANCO DE LA PAZ, O=7. If BANCO DE LOS ANDES S.A., O=8. If BANCO DE NACIONALE, O=9. Hope you enjoyed the movie, and this puzzle ! If you have your solution, check it for accuracy at GeoChecker.com  CONGRATULATIONS to Tom.dog for FTF -- he watched the movie, solved the puzzle, and got the cache (as it was getting dark at night) -- all in the same day! Some trivia, from The Internet Movie Database, at www.imdb.com: The filmmakers tried to get Bob Dylan to sing Burt Bacharach's famous song for the movie. He declined. Dustin Hoffman was considered for the role of Butch Cassidy. On the first day of shooting, involving the train robbery scenes, Katharine Ross came to the set to watch. There were five cameras and only four operators, so the DP put her on the extra camera. He showed her how to operate it, and how to move it to get her shot. Director George Roy Hill was furious, but said nothing the whole day. At the end of the day, however, he banned her from the set except when she was working. Katharine Ross enjoyed shooting the silent, bicycle riding sequence best, because it was handled by the film crew's second unit rather than the director. She said, "Any day away from George Roy Hill was a good one." (This was after she had been scolded and banned from the set for operating a camera.) Paul Newman did his own bicycle stunts, after his stunt man was unable to stay on the bike, except for the scene where Butch crashes backwards into the fence, which was performed by cinematographer Conrad L. Hall. The more commonly used name for Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid's gang was The Wild Bunch. However, when the Sam Peckinpah film, The Wild Bunch, was released a few months earlier, the name of the gang was changed to the Hole in the Wall Gang to avoid confusion with Peckinpah's film. According to screenwriter William Goldman, his screenplay originally was entitled "The Sundance Kid and Butch Cassidy." Both Steve McQueen and Paul Newman read the script at approximately the same time, and agreed to do it, with McQueen playing the Sundance Kid. When McQueen dropped out, the names reversed in the title, as Newman was a superstar. Other actors that were under consideration for the role of Sundance were Steve McQueen and Warren Beatty. McQueen withdrew due to billing disagreements, and Beatty declined as he found the film too similar to Bonnie and Clyde. Jack Lemmon turned down the role of Sundance because of a scheduling conflict with The Odd Couple. This movie was filmed roughly the same time as Hello, Dolly!, on the sound stage next door. Director George Roy Hill believed that the studio would allow him to film the New York scenes on "Dolly's" sets, since the two films' daily shooting schedules were totally different. After production started, though, the studio informed him that it wanted to keep the sets for "Dolly" a secret and so refused him permission. To work around this, Hill had Robert Redford, Paul Newman and Katharine Ross simply pose on the sets and took photos of them. He then inserted images of the three stars into a series of 300 actual period photos and spliced the two different sets (real and posed) together to form the New York montage. All the Bolivia scenes were filmed in Mexico, where almost the entire cast and crew, and the director, came down with Montezuma's Revenge (severe diarrhea caused by drinking Mexico's notoriously polluted water). Only Robert Redford, Paul Newman and Katharine Ross were spared, because they refused to drink the water catered on the set and stuck to drinking soda and alcohol for the duration of the shoot. The river jump was shot at the studio's Century Ranch near Malibu, CA. Paul Newman's and Robert Redford's stuntmen actually jumped off of a construction crane by Century Lake. The crane was obscured by a matte painting of the cliffs. Newman and Reford start the jump in Colorado, but only land on a mattress. The true identity of the historical person known as "Etta Place" is unknown. Historians have many different theories, a popular one being that she was Fort Worth innkeeper Eunice Gray, who died in a fire in 1962. Additional Waypoints
