-Even Cowgirls Get The Blues
-Crossroads
-Smithereens
-Highway 61
 
Haha! (I was gonna say "The journey of Natty Ghann" too), but..............
"Emporer of the North".....(Lee Marvin & Ernest Borgnine) 1972.
"End of the Line"....(Kevin Bacon & Wilford Brimely)....1996?
"Runaway Train"....(Jon Voight)....1988?
"Silver Streak"....(Gene Wilder & Richard Pryor)....1974?
Would "Star Wars" count??? lol!
"Austin Powers",...The Homeguard that Shagged me? (Has yet to be made)...
 
I'll def. second "Fival" and "White Fang". I'd like to add "Hostel", simply because I've had a few nights like that...
 
I still can't believe that Disney ever came up with the "Journey of Natty Gann," here's a link: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rczxoRMQZ2I"]YouTube - The Journey Of Natty Gann Part 1 [FULL MOVIE][/ame]
 
This movie clip is from "End of the Line" with Wilford Brimely and Kevin Bacon....(Kevin Bacon is not in this part of the clip).
Has got to be up there with "Emporer of the North" as far as my favorite train movies!!!

neflix has every fucking movie ive looked up on it. some you can watch straight from the computer too! watched crossroads two days ago while nursing a hangover.
 
Any chance we might be able to show a couple movies, maybe one each of two nights, at the late-April get-together in Portland?
Like, what would it take to get some electric out there to power a TV & DVD/VHS player? A miracle?
 
if you don't know Tony Gatliff movies, they are a must see if you have a travelling bone. They are about Roma people (gypsies), so if you like to Roama... I like bad puns.

And back in the land of cheeseburgers, I like the movie "You can count on me" a lot. It's not about travelling per say, but one of the main characters is a traveller and the essence of what that means is captured really well.
 
Leaving Normal
The Sheltering Sky
Treasure of THe Sierra Madre
Days of Heaven by Terrance Malik is beautifully shot but terribly slow moving, like everything Malick does on both counts.Its
about agracultural workers circa 1920, and starts out with a freight hopping sequence.

I just saw "The Art of TraveL" (fiction)ok, but not great.
