Eat my dust
« on: August 11, 2008, 07:22:12 PM »
I was reading another thread where the guy was looking for good motorcycle movies. One movie I remebered was "On any Sunday". I looked on ebay for it about a year ago and had no luck. Does anyone know where to find it? This got me thinking of other movies. Does anyone remember the movie "Eat my dust"? I think Ron Howard was in it. Also, I saw a movie once that I think the Dukes of hazard was based on. There was alot of similarities. There was an Uncle Jesse, they lived on a farm and there was two guys that drove a charger. I saw it way back in the 80's so thats all I remember.

When I'm hankering after a bit of nostalgia I usually order my oldie goldie dvds (The deer hunter, Apocalypse Now, Cool Hand Luke, The great escape etc, etc) om a website called Play.com, I don't know if you can access it from the US though. Try it.
