Red Bovie had a
ranch in Texas but a land developer forced him out and he had to give up the
land and his home. He is supposed
to go to live in a trailer because that is all he can afford but he says he
won’t set foot in it. A grandson Gally
that he didn’t know he had comes to visit just at this time. Red decides they will drive his
Cadillac to Old Mexico for one last wild adventure. There are a lot of twists and turns in their trip!
Bovie does get to
know his grandson but they get into a lot of trouble too. Even the Cadillac gets into
trouble!! This film is a good
warning to never pick up hitchhikers!! I thought this might not be very good but it’s better than I
expected. The trailers preceding
are of terrible movies!! 2 ½*

There is a goof concerning the hat that Gally wears. At the end of the film two other hats were used to show the
wear and tear but they are not the same style? The writer of this film is Bill Wittliff and he also wrote
Lonesome Dove.
