      Audience Member Nice double with Payday or Cisco Pike perhaps... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Total B picture, but I love it. I've always had a soft spot for Susan St. James, and Peter Fonda is just so likeable in this! I saw it at just the right moment, in London, and have loved it ever since. Unfortunately, I don't seem to be able to find it on dvd. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Really enjoyable and sweet, although it helps if you like Peter Fonda and can suspend your disbelief at the "old-fashioned" story. Peter and Susan St. James are two very likeable, good-hearted people falling in love, running from the cops, releasing hit records, and having fun doing it. I guess that's "corny", but what the hell DO you like??!? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
