Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here is a 1969 American Western film based on the true story of a Chemehuevi–Paiute Native American named Willie Boy[2] and his run-in with the law in 1909 in Banning, California, United States.[3]
The film is an adaptation of the 1960 book Willie Boy: A Desert Manhunt by Harry Lawton.
The film was written and directed by the once blacklisted Abraham Polonsky, who, due to his blacklisting, had not directed a film since Force of Evil in 1948.
