Easy the Hard Road
jasperredhat23 November 2023
Yes, this is how you make a documentary. And how you tell a crime story. Bluntly. No nonsense. Or own analyzes.

On November 30, 1957, Charles Starkweather decided to buy a teddy bear for his girlfriend. He was denied credit and therefore defeated the shop assistant Robert Colvert with a shotgun. He ripped together some banknotes from the cash register and forced Colvert out of the store and in a stolen car. In a forest grove, Starkweather stopped. When Colvert, he was executed with shots in his head.

Starkweather's defects made him the easy target for the school's bullies. But after a visit to the movies in his hometown Lincoln, Nebraska, he transformed from an uncertain boy to a rebel. The movie was "Wild Youth." Like his new idols, he now wore leather jacket, jeans and cowboy boots. He used pomada in his hair and practiced cool attitudes and looks.

Easy the hard road.
