Review of The Sugarland Express (1974) by Brad S — 19 Mar 2017
- Apparently this is my 2nd time watching this first feature from Steven Spielberg, but I hadn't recalled seeing it. So, it was worth another look, this time I got to see it in HD which is great as it features some of the typical work of Spielberg including the Hitchcock zoom/track shot that he also uses in Jaws. Vilmos Zsigmond did the cinematography and John Williams work for Spielberg for the first time and did the score. Goldie Hawn is very young in this and has a lot of charm. Worth a watch for film fans.
- The one is dated, but still pretty good, especially considering it's Spielberg's first theatrical film. The film moves at a good pace and you can tell, even at this time, that Spielberg is a real talent. Worth watching for its historical context, and it's also base on a true story. Check it out!
