Viewing Notes
I never knew James Taylor could be such a bad mother fucker. He’s got the death stare in this.
If any movie is going to make you want to grab a classic muscle car and head out across the country, this is it. It’s a classic and for damn good reason. Beautifully shot, delightfully subtle in it’s humor and harshness and a shot at Americana that doesn’t exist anymore.
