BOOTLEGGERS-- 1974 This is such a good example of why regional filmmaking is a valuable thing--a personal project of Charles B Pierce who I read had to drive across country to get his film processed. It's a slow-moving story but engrossing and gives affectionate roles for Slim Pickens in particular--as well as Paul Koslo and Jacyln Smith who I have not seen in anything for a long time and it did remind me why she was my favorite angel.

PS. Was the print you saw in the correct 2.35 : 1 aspect ratio or was it a pan and scan? Having only seen Bootleggers on VHS (many times - back in the day my friend Victor and I used to drink Southern Comfort and watch the likes of Bootleggers and Bad Georgia Road at the video store in the late afternoon before the evening rush). I hope Bootleggers will come out on Blu ray one of these days.
