Needs to be on DVD, 11 April 2002
Author: silverstreak47

The previous poster succinctly and successfully described the plot of a movie that is what show business should be today. The one liners from "icy calm" Lonnigan are priceless and the driving is superb. Jerry Taylor, the director, did it right when he put the long Stingray chase scene to the beat of the unknown country song "Hi Gear" sung by Gerry Riopelle. "We won't be slowing down because we're driving these wheels into the ground" This film is a must see and should be stored on DVD!!!!
