I have watched this movie before & it is a good one to watch! Tobey McGuire & Reese Witherspoon lead an excellent cast! Special shout out to The Young and the Restless's David Tom who plays Whitey?- he played that character well! I'f you're looking for retrospective 50's type movie then check this movie out!

This movie is wonderful. The music is masterfully chosen as well, especially during the scene where the protagonist tells the people meeting in the malt shop about how "there are some places where the road doesn't end... it just keeps going" - that scene will always stick with me. It's a little preachy towards the end, but the story calls for it, frankly. This is worth a rent.

A great way of explaining racism, inequality, religion and mentality of boomers trying to hold on to "the good old days" without directly offending anyone. When my mom rented this from the Video store, I though I was going to hate it. I ended up loving this and making it one of my favorite movies ever made. Easily a top 10 for me
