Description:
Pit Stop (1969)
Director: Jack Hill
Starring: Beverly Washburn, Brian Donlevy, Richard Davalos, Ellen Burstyn, Sid Haig, George Washburn
Newly Re-mastered in HD! This critically praised, authentic auto-racing
flick was the second feature written and directed solely by the great
Jack Hill (FOXY BROWN, THE BIG BIRD CAGE). It's a stunning combination
of moody art house style and full throttle, steel-crunching action, as
we follow the upward trajectory of ambitious driver Rick Bowman (Dick
Dayalos) from drag racer to stock car champ via the insane,
demolition-derby style world of "figure 8" racing. Featuring lots of
brilliantly integrated authentic footage from the actual races, this
gritty, well-written film delivers in speed, guts, and greatness. Brian
Donlevy co-stars as Grant Willard, the owner of the track who drives the
men on to their destruction. Cult favorite Sid Haig is "The Hawk" the
crazy, reigning champion of the course. Beverly Washburn is Rick's
gum-snapping girlfriend, and Ellen Burstyn in her third film (billed as
Ellen McRae) plays the wife of a rival driver, who starts an affair with
Rick. Filled with real-life stock car personalities like announcer
Harry Schooler, and an electric bluesy rock score by the Daily Flash,
this resonant slice of back-roads Americana is a must for fans of car
culture, or just high-energy, well-crafted films.
