Two Lane Blacktop

Musicians James Taylor and Dennis Wilson star as quiet drag racers in a souped-up ‘55 Chevy who challenge a wanderer (Warren Oates) in his new Pontiac GTO to a cross-country race. Monte Hellman’s bare-bones story, spare dialogue, and stunning widescreen vistas create an unprecedented existential masterpiece. 1971, 35mm, 102 minutes.
