The first Monte Hellman I saw is his most famous, "Two Lane Blacktop" when it came out in 1971. I think everyone from that film is dead, except for James Taylor, who played "The Driver". That was a brilliant film. This one, however, is not quite the same. I do want to point out Shannon Sossamon is cast in this. I think she is a very underrated actress. She is beautiful as well, reminds me of Nastassja Kinski, but doesn't have Ms. Kinski's unique eyes. This film syarts out good, but peters out, unfortunately. It is worth a watch.
