Summary of Two-Lane Blacktop - Criterion CollectionDrag racing east from L.A. in a souped-up ?f55 Chevy are the wayward Driver and Mechanic (singer/songwriter James Taylor and the Beach Boys?f Dennis Wilson, in their only acting roles), accompanied by a tagalong Girl (Laurie Bird). Along the way, they meet Warren Oates?fs Pontiac GTO-driving wanderer and challenge him to a cross-country race?the prize: their cars?f pink slips. Yet no summary can do justice to the existential punch of Two-Lane Blacktop. Maverick director Monte Hellman?fs stripped-down narrative, gorgeous widescreen compositions, and sophisticated look at American male obsession make this one of the artistic high points of 1970s cinema, and possibly the greatest road movie ever made.
