Michael Wallis attempts to debunk the myth about this famous outlaw. Henry McCarty aka William Bonney aka Billy the Kid lived a short but violent life from 1859 until he was killed by Pat Garrett in 1881. ![]() ![]() A sequel to the movie was discussed but the studio was unable to agree on the salary with Hammett.
