About this product

Product Information

Cult film director Monte Hellman follows up his legendary westerns THE SHOOTING and RIDE IN THE WHIRLWIND with another bona fide classic, this time set on the paved highways of early 1970s America. Making their acting debuts, musicians Dennis Wilson and James Taylor play a pair of drag-racing drifters who battle against willing competitors all along the back roads of America, encountering a wild cast of characters. After stopping for lunch one afternoon, Taylor (The Driver) and Wilson (The Mechanic) discover a young woman in their back seat (Laurie Bird, credited as (The Girl). The newly formed trio continues to head east, and places a risky bet with Warren Oates after bumping into each other at a gas station. The first automobile to arrive in Washington D.C. is the winner. The prize: the loser's car (Taylor and Wilson drive a 1955 Chevy, while Oates pilots a 1970 Pontiac GTO). Strangely enough, rather than turning into a relentless fight to the finish, none of the participants seem too worried about picking up the pace. In fact, they act as if they're afraid of reaching their destinations, spurning an endless series of sidetracks that turns Hellman's film into a broad existential metaphor and cementing its place as one of 1970s Hollywood's bravest motion pictures.

  • 70's funkadelic gearhead classic!

    The only reason I don't give this a 5/5 rating is that it takes a really specialized fan to appreciate this movie - the acting is mediocre at best (excepting Dennis Wilson, who basically freelances his character throughout the movie, and does a great job doing so.), and the plot-line is kinda muddled. What makes the movie is the CARS, and the fact that it COULD have happened in the 70's and wouldn't happen today. Also, the soundtrack is classic! Think of the this as the car version of Easy Rider, and you will probably love it like I do! Ahh, history at it's best....

  • A timeless classic!

    I love metal tins! If you can find one of these special edition with the book and the key chain,get it! The sound and the picture are beautiful.

  • Two lane blacktop to freedom

    This movie isn't for everyone, but it represented a way of life in the past that I was a part of. So, I do connect with the characters and the story that they are telling. Although the acting is somewhat below par. I actually knew people who were like each of the characters, sullen and reserved like James Taylor's character and so on. To me, the movie represents not only racing and the cars of the day, but the freedom to do what they were doing. Some people call this a cult classic, but I call it the fast and the furious of the 70s.

  • Road Movie Classic

    This film has to be 'your sort of thing' to be fully appreciated - this being the case it is hard to fault, whilst it is quite slow paced with very little in the way of current Hollywood automotive spectacle, it engenders the level of insight and 'soul' normally only associated with a documentary. The characters names are never revealed during the film referred to instead by associated titles, Warren Oates character drives a Yellow Pontiac GTO and is thus only ever referred to as 'GTO'. Aside from the chance to see aspects of everyday America not generally covered by films made during this era - the real attraction of the film is the cars, specifically the 1955 Street Rod Chevy occupied by 'The Driver' and 'The Mechanic'. If 60's big block muscle cars are your thing then the scene where ...

  • Great movie!

    Been looking for this for a long time.
