The Last American Hero

The Last American Hero

This was a rewatch from about 1976 for me and for the rest of you....SEEEE THISSSS!  Jeff Bridges has always been a favorite actor of mine and this flick was one of his first 5 or so.  Awesome.  This is a dealio that has definitely aged well.  If you are a fan of NASCAR or just a good story, this is a killer film to see.   The acting is awesome, the directing is great, the cinematography has it going on, the script is good and the soundtrack is good period stuff as well.

You name it; father/son drama, brother/brother drama, dude coming of age drama, the dude who doesn't fit in to the rules of the game but changes them and wins, all of those story lines get it going in here.  Glad I saw this one again!
