10 great American road trip films - BFI List


My most recent discoveries are the Lists on the BFI Website. I think they are a smart alternative to long articles, because they allow the reader to select his/her area of interest, and have easy access to suggested viewings.
Since I personally love road trips, and one across the US is my biggest dream, this list is one of my favourite. You can find the original list at this link:


Here are the 10 great American road trip films:

The Hitch-hiker (Ida Lupino, 1953)

Five Easy Pieces (Bob Rafelson, 1970)

Duel (Steven Spielberg, 1971)

Two-lane Blacktop (Monte Hellman, 1971)

Badlands (Terrence Malick, 1973)

Starman (John Carpenter, 1984)

Something Wild (Jonathan Demme, 1986)
