Cattle Annie and Little Britches (1980) - (Burt Lancaster) Spanish one-sheet

This is a 27" x 39" Spanish one-sheet poster using art by Macario "Mac" Gomez to promote the 1980 Lamont Johnson film Cattle Annie and Little Britches based on a novel by Robert Ward with screenplay by David Eyre and starring Scott Glenn as Bill Dalton. Plot summary: The events in this film are partly accurate historically, based on the lives of two adolescent girls in 19th Century Oklahoma who leave home to cast their lot with some famous criminals, the remnants of the Doolin-Dalton Gang. The older of the two girls is Anna Emmaline McDoulet "Cattle Annie" played by Amanda Plummer; the younger is Jennie Stevens -"Little Britches" [Diane Lane]. The two girls try to inspire Bill Doolin [Burt Lancaster] to achieve greater things out of great admiration formed in the reading of accounts of him in stories by Ned Buntline, the famous American journalist, publicist and dime novelist.
