So that was an old highway they used in the movie?
I’ve been down Hwy 1 twice. Once I was hitching down to Key West (in my wild youth). A hippy-looking couple picked me up, said it was illegal to hitchhike in Monroe county, gave me a ride about half way down, took a bus the rest of the way. The other time I drive down. That’s a LONG, LONG ride.
Built i think in the 20s During the time they were putting the rail Road in from Miami to Key West. Hurricane came in and wiped everything out.
