Someone said ‘Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry’ and my life flashed before my eyes

September 13, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

Airing on TCM Underground Saturday “night.”

More here:

Well-known to cult movie aficianados, DIRTY MARY CRAZY LARRY is likely undiscovered country to 99% of the world these days, forty years after the fact. If they remade this movie now, the characters would be sympathetic and there would be a backstory explaining why these three sociopaths do what they do… but thankfully in 1974 we didn’t mess with that noise, we just hit the road and let the cops bring it on. (…)

What a ride. And what a finish. It probably makes me love this movie even more that I saw it in a car.
