Bandits and Outlaws

I think this topic about bandits and outlaws is very interesting as in recent year’s bandits and outlaws are glamorised. Before, bandits and outlaws in films or in real life were considered immoral and evil figures. However, I feel currently, especially in films, the “bad guys” are praised and glorified like in the film “Scarface” directed by Brian De Palma is a story about a determined Cuban immigrant who takes over a drug empire while succumbing to greed, which eventually causes his death. I think this is a good example of a film that glamorises a morally wrong figure.

Here is a website which has articles on notorious outlaws of America :
