I'm from Michigan and I can tell in a flash when one of my own are trying to talk like a southerner. So I wasn't too surprised to find that only one actor in this flick is really southern (Randy Quaid). It was filmed in Canada with mostly a Canadian cast. Anyone from the south watching this is going to choke.Even so, I still love it for the flow of the story, the cars, the sound track. It's as cool as Bullitt. If you want to see it, you might find it hard to find because it was made for TV. I saw it on the Hallmark Movie Channel.Also this was Andy Armstrong's one and only movie so it's like a one-of-a-kind. See it if you can.

Saw this flick and thought it was the worst waste of celluloid I have seen in years. I live in Tennessee and believe me, this Canadian flick (yes, CANADIAN) has little bearing on the state of moonshining in the 1950's. Avoid it like a case of the clap.

I sat down and turned on the tube as this TV movie was about to begin. I knew nothing about this film but as the first few scenes went by it was clear that there was a talented filmmaker at work. I know nothing what so ever about Mr. Armstrong, the director, but that is bound to change. The film kind of reminded me of Roberto Rodriguez's work, in its love of old rock'n roll, car chases and cool characters that talk cool. But by saying that I am not taking anything away from Mr. Armstrong's highly stylised originality. It would be and probably will be interesting to see what Mr. Armstrong could do if given a higher budget and a bigger platform on which he can display his considerable talent.
