Episode 53: White Lightning (1973)

Welcome backt to Film Haven Reviews!! This week we are continuing our "70's Car Chase Scene" theme with the good ol' boy classic White Lightning (1973). This was such a fun movie to watch and perfectly embodied the genre of Deep South Car movie. A young Burt Reynolds really sells the rough around the edges country hero and Ned Beatty plays a pitch perfect antagonist as the Sheriff of Bogan Country. I gave this movie a 7/10 for providing fun car chase thrills, incredible sense of setting, but a little over long and a meandering second half. All around it was a fun time though! For my full written review feel free to follow my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/film_haven_reviews/
