    ROAD MOVIES of the 70s and 80s

    The great American highway is a vast stretch of endless skies and wondrous beauty. However, the great American road movies of the 70s and 80s would have you believe that, out there among the muscle cars and lost weekends, a darker undercurrent might send you face to face with grizzled drifters and hit men, evil big rigs, vampires and satanists, all possibly with a serious case of road rage. But hey, that's just the movies. If you can't hit the road this summer, you can save the ga$ and park your rear at the Belcourt throughout August and on into Labor Day.

    All films are presented in 35mm with showtimes TBA unless indicated below.

     


    TWO-LANE BLACKTOP
    Legendary musicians Dennis Wilson (The Beach Boys) and James Taylor co-star in this acclaimed film about drag-racing drifters who are more devoted to their '55 Chevy than they are to each other. Directed by Monte Hellman (COCKFIGHTER), this definitive American road movie tells the story of two drivers who battle across the back roads for possession of each other's pink slips and the affections of a mysterious young hitchhiker.

    Dir. Monte Hellman, USA, 1971, 102min, R, 35mm
