Kevin Costner plays Butch Haynes, an escaped convict. He is the central character in this film. He's an interesting character. We get some insight into his character from Sally Gerber (Laura Dern), a criminologist assigned to the manhunt by the Governor of Texas, much to the chagrin of the head of the Texas Rangers, Red Garrett (Clint Eastwood). Almost, it seems, in a fit of pique, Red commandeers a mobile command centre that the Governor has just had delivered — the Governor was planning to ride in it in a parade about to be held in Dallas in honour of President Kennedy (gee, can you guess when this film is set?).
What makes this film somewhat interesting is that Butch Haynes has taken a hostage with him. That hostage is an eight-year-old boy called Phillip Perry (a very impressive performance from T J Lowther). Phillip has had a sheltered upbringing — his mother doesn't let him celebrate Halloween, or Christmas, or even birthdays, because they are Jehovah's Witnesses. Phillip is exposed to all manner of experiences as Butch takes him various places in his attempts to avoid being apprehended. The development of the relationship between Butch and Phillip is very well done, and better acting than I've seen from Kevin Costner in other films.
