Across The Tracks stars Rick Schroder and Brad Pitt as a pair of brothers with
Carrie Snodgrass as their put upon mom. Schroder is on probation and recently
released from reform school where he took a rap for joy riding in a stolen car
for David Anthony Marshall his drug dealing buddy. Pitt is an aspiring track
star and a straight arrow if there ever was one.
Schroder has to attend another high school and he discovers that he too has a skill in running. That's encouraged by Pitt until Schroder shows he just might have more ability than Pitt. After that Pitt starts straying over to the dark side.
This was a no frills type film which is carried by the good chemistry shown by Snodgrass, Schroder, and Pitt as the Maloney family. It plays like one of those after school special films, but it's much better than that.
Anyway it's a good chance for his fans to see Brad Pitt in his salad days.
