Review of Two-Lane Blacktop (1971) by Donovan N — 30 May 2007
James Taylor says Fuck? Dennis Wilson screws a girl that would later go on to kill herself? Warren Oates...how DID he get the GTO? This movie is the ultimate americana B movie. Hellman, a horror movie director, has made one of the most brilliant films in American history.
Two music icons take a primer '55 Gasser Chevy cross-country hustling money from drag races. It also catalogues a great amount of history - from hippy culture, to a shot of a burnout of the late, great Ronnie Sox, and even a match race between the Bardahl Vette and the infamous 454-4 speed Chevy that would later become Harrison Ford's black '55 in American Graffiti.
