Well, I finally watched a Fast and the Furious movie, but I watched the one from before F&F was cool, and absolutely not about fambily.
This movie is a Corman-produced thing about the working-est actor in Hollywood who you recognize but don't know his name (John Ireland) as a crook on the run who hijacks a very cool car that is owned and operated by the-always-a-good-idea Dorothy Malone. He's trying to get across the border to Mexico, and a race that takes people across the border is his ticket out.
For a 1950's Corman movie, it holds together really well and when it is talky, it's all right, because Malone and Ireland are legit actors. And Ireland was one of the directors, which is interesting (to me). Only one of two directorial efforts.
Anyway, I watched this three months ago and forgot to mention it, so here we are.
