The Arthur Penn film identified in the planner

The source title in the keyword planner identifies the 1966 drama. Bubber is the escapee, Anna is his wife, and Calder is the sheriff trying to maintain order. The town’s reactions are as important as the pursuit itself. This distinction matters because The Chase is a widely reused title, including for later action films and television formats; the Brando, Fonda and Redford cast identifies this production.
