One day, three farm boys come upon a wounded outlaw named Harry Spikes. They take him to one of the boys' barn, nurse him back to health, shield him from a sheriff's posse, and let him go on his way. Later, to escape the tyrannical discipline of their parents, the three boys run away from home in search of adventure and excitement. In the first town they come to, they bungle a bank robbery, and shoot and kill a state senator by accident. Then, with the law in hot pursuit, they flee across the Texas border into Mexico. Upon arriving there, they happily reunite with Harry Spikes. He takes the boys under his wing, teaches them the outlaw's trade, and the four of them cross the border back into Texas. After careful preparation, they attempt a bank robbery that goes horribly wrong. Tragically, the boys discover that Harry Spikes is not the genuine hero that they thought he was. Lee Marvin, Gary Grimes, Ron Howard, and Charles Martin Smith star in this thrilling Western tale that examines the tragic consequences of hero worship and the loss of youthful innocence. 　　译文(2): 一天，三个农场男孩遇到一个名叫哈利 · 斯派克斯的受伤歹【资源囤-ZiYuanTun.Com】。他们把他带到其中一个男孩的谷仓，照顾他恢复健康，保护他远离治安官的武装队，让他继续前进。后来，为了逃避父母的严厉管教，三个男孩离家出走，寻找冒险和刺激。在他们来到的第一个镇上，他们搞砸了一起银行抢劫案，还意外枪杀了一名州参议员。然后，在法律的紧追下，他们越过德克萨斯州边境逃往墨西哥。到了那里，他们高兴地与哈利 · 斯派克斯团聚。他照顾孩子们，教他们做生意，然后他们四个穿过边境回到德克萨斯。经过精心准备，他们企图抢劫银行，结果发生了可怕的错误。不幸的是，孩子们发现哈利 · 斯派克斯并不是他们所认为的真正的英雄。李马文，加里格莱姆斯，罗恩霍华德和查尔斯·马丁·史密斯明星在这个惊心动魄的西方故事，检查英雄崇拜的悲剧性后果和失去年轻的天真无邪。
