Film Details
Preceded by a recorded conversation, exclusive to King Street Cinema, with film and music historian and preservationist, Mike Matessino, producer of the film's 50th Anniversary soundtrack release.
Steven Spielberg’s brash, anti-establishment theatrical debut follows the trans-Texas odyssey of married couple Clovis (William Atherton) and Lou Jean (a radiant Goldie Hawn) in search of their young son in foster care. After Lou Jean springs Clovis from prison, the pair hijack a Texas highway patrolman’s car and become minor celebrities and major folk heroes to the locals breathlessly following their exploits. Shot through with youthful exuberance and early-career ambition, THE SUGARLAND EXPRESS is presented in a gorgeous new 4K restoration.
