The directing debut of Matthew Robbins, co-writer (with Hal Barwood) of Steven Spielberg’s The Sugarland Express, is a youth movie very much in the mould of American Graffiti (1973).
Mark Hamill, then fresh from the original Star Wars (1977), stars as a young man who spends most of his time fondling, stroking and polishing the love of his life: a restored and customised Chevrolet Corvette.
When the car is stolen, Hamill goes looking for it with the help of trainee prostitute Annie Potts, who lives in a psychedelic Dormobile.
A pity Robbins’s directing career proved to be fairly undistinguished after this promising first feature.
