But Willeford’s writing is always worth reading, and Monte Hellman’s films are always worth seeing.

The subject is rough and the whole thing feels ultra low-budget. Instead, see if you can find “Two-Lane Blacktop.” As I write this, I am thinking I want to see “Two-Lane…” again.Elgin Bleeckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08417587392887691664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-265307513666706251.post-82960941636164958242016-10-21T14:31:38.872-04:002016-10-21T14:31:38.872-04:00Elgin, neither the director nor the actors are fam...Elgin, neither the director nor the actors are familiar to me but I'd like to watch this film because of the story, which I think is unusual, and because of your warning of the kind of film it is. It also sounds like a well-made movie.Prashant C. Trikannadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16079354501998741758noreply@blogger.com
