Vanishing Point. And I mean the original, not the remake.

Barry Newman behind the wheel of a 1970 Dodge Challenger. Faith healers in the Nevada desert. Early Kim Carnes soundtrack. And of course, Cleavon Little working his DJ mojo from that radio station in Nowheresville, Colorado. What's not to like?

"This radio station was named Kowalski in honour of the last American hero to whom speed means freedom of the soul. The question is not when he's gonna stop But who is gonna stop him."

And of course. . .

"There goes the Challenger, being chased by the blue blue meanies on wheels. The vicious traffic squad cars are after our lone driver. The last American hero. The electric centaur. The demigod. The super driver of the golden west. 'Itvo nasty Nazi cars are close behind the beautiful lone driver. The police numbers are getting closer, closer, closer to our soul hero, in his soul mobile. Yeah baby, they're about to strike. They're gonna get him, smash him, rape the last beautiful free soul on this planet."

Classic!
