What have I seen on Netflix? The Highwaymen

OPINION

Last Sunday I saw in Netflix The Highwaymen, a film starring Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson, two actors with many films on their backs. This interpretative experience is manifested in the film, with good interpretative moments and others not so good, but the final result is a film that one lets oneself be loved on a peaceful Sunday afternoon.

The narrative is simple and direct, without any subtramatic vericueto that makes you lose the thread of the main plot, which is none other than capturing the mythical and miserable Bonnie and Clyde, putting on the table the other side of the coin that, on many occasions, is lost sight and more in the case of these two outlaws who became almost legends.
