About this release
LIMITED EDITION: A free-spirited young hitchhiker befriends a middle-aged man in this lighthearted charmer. Sissy Spacek, in between her star turns in Badlands and Carrie, plays the title role, and is joined by such stars as Monte Markham, Mark Miller, and Fred Ward. The movie has a great early seventies feel, and may make you yearn for the days when picking up hitchhikers was an everyday thing! New scan in 4K from the original camera negative.
