#Iwatched my favourite western movie Young Guns II again last night. As is customary I did some Wikipedia reading on the Regulators of the Lincoln county war afterwards.
And so I learned that the first film about Billy the Kid, a silent movie made in 1911, depicted Billy as a girl brought up as a cowboy and later impersonating a boy. Sounds like an interesting twist to me. Unfortunately the 1911 film is considered lost.
