Review of Lost in America (1985) by Ken S — 14 Aug 2017
A successful ad man and his wife decide to drop out society after he fails to get a bug promotion and loses his job. They liquidate their assets, buy an RV and plan to spend the rest of their lived coasting on their substantial nest egg.
..but the entire plan falls apart pretty quickly when his wife gambles all but $802 in Vegas. Albert Brooks and Julie Hagerty are great as the couple who want to try the Easy Rider lifestyle with no way of knowing how to actually accomplish that with their Yuppie sensibilities.
A funny movie that satires the 80s lifestyle, but still holds up fairly well.
