The Two Men Worked Together Before The Mission
The true story of The Highwaymen played out like a real-life buddy cop movie. Kevin Costner's Hamer and Woody Harrelson's Gaultwere two former US Marshals called back into action to stop Bonnie and Clyde. The former relationship between the two law enforcement officials helps them establish an easy rapport as they set out on Bonnie and Clyde's trail. While The Highwaymen takes a few liberties with the timing of their partnership, Hamer and Gault did indeed know and work together before this c...
Gault Was Still An Active Officer When Recruited
When Gault shows up early inThe Highwaymen, he is a hard-drinking man down on his luck. He lives with his daughter and grandson, struggling to contribute to the impoverished household. The mission to hunt down Bonnie and Clyde gives him renewed purpose, but the question remains about whether Gault is too broken from his violent past. The real-life Gault was nowhere near this sort of sad state when Hamer recruited him. The real Gault never really left law enforcement as he was working steadily...
Bonnie & Clyde Really Broke Their Gang Out Of Prison
The Highwaymen opens with a daring prison escape orchestrated by Bonnie and Clyde (played in cameo appearances by Emily Brobst and Edward Bossert), allowing several crew members to escape custody. The breakout left one guard dead and another injured. The embarrassment of the gang's brazen act convinced the state of Texas to kick the manhunt into high gear and hire Hamer to bring them down. The dramatic event is true. It happened in 1934 at Eastham Prison as is depicted in the film. It is also...
Hamer & Gault Never Saw Them Until The Final Battle
Throughout The Highwaymen, Hamer and Gault are hot on the heels of the murderous couple who remain just one step ahead of them. However, their paths finally cross by accident, even leading to a car chase between the Rangers and the criminals. In reality, Hamer and Gault saw Bonnie and Clyde for the first time on the day they gunned them down. While the real Hamer and Gault's investigation was effective at staying on the trail, any encounters the duo had with them before their final shootout i...
Bonnie & Clyde Really Killed Two Police Officers
The first instance when the lawmen witness the aftermath of Bonnie and Clyde's crimes was when they gunned down two patrol officers on Easter Sunday in Grapevine, Texas. The brutal murder helps cement the fact that The Highwaymen is not going to be a flattering look at the infamous couple. Sadly, the shooting really happened, though the film plays around with the facts of the event. The murder was widely circulated in the press in detail but did little to dampen the public’s love of Bonnie an...
Bonnie Had A Limp From An Auto Accident
In an interesting move, The Highwaymen never reveals a full look at Bonnie and Clyde until the end, offering only glimpses of them throughout the film. However, whenever we see Bonnie, she is shown to have a bad limp said to be from a car accident. This is incredible attention to detail from The Highwaymen, as the limp is historically accurate. The real Bonnie and Clyde had crashed their car at some point and battery acid leaked onto Bonnie's leg, giving her that bad limp for the rest of her...
Bonnie Possibly Never Really Killed Anyone
The Highwaymen goes to great lengths to demystify any of the romantic notions about Bonnie and Clyde, showing them as cold-blooded and ruthless killers. It specifically focuses on Bonnie’s murderous side, showing her gleefully executing several victims. Bonnie was complicit in all of Clyde Barrow's crimes. However, many scholars refute that she was ever meaningfully involved with them. Despite what the film suggests, there is no evidence tying Bonnie to any murders. Some even suggest it is un...
