Roadracers

1994 · TMDB 5.9

Directed by Robert Rodriguez

In the 1950s, guitar-playing drifter Dude Delaney wanders into a quiet town looking to play music and generally cause trouble, much to the chagrin of the local sheriff, known as Sarge. While palling around with his B-movie-obsessed friend Nixer, Dude meets the beautiful Donna, and is offered a position in a rockabilly band, but the sheriff is intent on getting rid of him by any means necessary.

Should a film really be in your top 4 if you don't watch it at least once a year? The roller skating scene is a tour de force!

First watch in a few years and it's still incredible. The roller skating scene is great. Hawkes, Hayek and Arquette are brilliant and Arquette smokes the hell out of a lot of cigarettes and looks cool doing it! Loved this film for nearly 30 years and it's STILL Rodriguez's best film!

This was the first film by Robert Rodriguez that I watched. Aired on BBC2 in the mid 90s. I had it on VHS and pretty much wore it out. Love it so much. Had to track down a DVD from somewhere abroad years ago. I've not enjoyed another Rodriguez film as much as this.
