Car-chase road-trip through the vast territories & counterculture of 70s America. Most of the movie consists in speeding from one point to another, while evading the authorities that try to put a stop to the journey. As such, it offers spectacular chases, freaky races and exciting stunts - all expertly filmed and set in gorgeous & empty landscapes, for our pleasure. The MC comes across a panorama of atypical people on his way, ranging from the hippie druggies to just-married queers, and from faith healers to desert snake barters. An undefinable, ungraspable, spiritual quest drives him forward, manifesting in an existential, disinterested, radical act of Rebellion - and thus, of Freedom.
不明白为什么那么多人不爽拿这片和Woody Allen比。这不就是Woody Allen那一套吗?除了学英语和帮坎城红毯凑明星,好像也没啥用了,技术上也没亮点,关键问题是剧情全靠角色口播。Emma Thompson能不能别演疯癫女人了。Grace Van Patten很亮眼,乍一看以为Shailene Woodley. St. Louis念成圣路易。
