A Spanish made for TV movie released in two parts; based on a true story of a bank robber that was arrested not a long time ago.

Pictures replaced by ones with a correct ratio and slightly better quality, and also added missing vehicles.

As said above, this movie tells the story of "El Solitario", a bank robber and assasin that always held a sword over investigators' heads as it was impossible for them to catch him, he was able to rob on many banks during ten years or more, until finally a few months ago they caught him when he was about to rob in another bank in Portugal, he killed two Guardia Civiles during a car chase in which he shot them out, he also was involved in a few shoot-outs in which two police men were injured and a third was killed, he was quite crazy and mad, in his neighbourhood he was known for being a loco and disturbing everybody, he also once rammed his neighbour's car simply because his neighbour parked his car at the exit of his house, he was very meticulous and nobody would suspect of him, he prepared every robbery perfectly so nobody would catch him, he used to stick a fake beard on his face and wear a bulletproof vest and sticking plaster on his hand not to let any fingerprints.

He always would scape free until police could arrive to the bank he had robbed in, finally when he was caught up in Portugal he was arrested and therefore photos of him were taken by the Portugal police, in those photos shown to the press he had fun joking to the police men laughing and smiling so it was impossible to take him a proper photo.

On internet you can see some of these photos:

On this link you can see some of the photos of him after he was arrested

And this is the same photo shown in the link above but from the movie.

Hope i have not bored you once again telling the stories from this "based-on-true-story" movies, but i really find them interesting in these cases.
