wrong thread!
This lot should keep me going longer than a road trip across the US
I visited the town of Independence in Oregon that Dave Gorman happened upon on his trip. A surprise of a main street with no chain stores. The guys I stayed with needed a part for a garage door, the ironmongers still stocked it thirty years after it was first fitted and it was sold by the same guy. That's the kind of town I'd like to live in
Little Miss Sunshine
EDIT: Actually the trailer doesn't make it look anywhere near as good as it actually is...

Or, one that hasn't been suggested already - [b]The Hitcher[/b] (Rutger Hauer version, NOT Sean Bean!!)
Oh come on, there can only be one. (Not very safe for work)
Crude American Pie style college comedy, but I laughed like a drain watching it.
Midnight Run with de Niro is a road movie. Not seen it since it came out, think it was pretty good.
Jack Lemmon "classic", The [url= http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066193/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_46 ]Out Of Towners[/url] - "Oh My Gawd George!"
Another vote for The Straight Story

I don't think I ever want to watch that film again. It tore me up the first time I watched it and now (as a father) I think I'd be an emotional wreck watching it.
Dunno.
Y tu mama tambien

The book is even worse, from this aspect. I don't think I've ever cried reading a book, until I read The Road.
I know what you mean: I love the book, and the film is pretty damn good, but I have no desire to read or watch them again.
For the record: I don't have children.
Yeah I've heard that you the book is much worse. Or better. More traumatic anyway.

Good shout and currently on Netflix.
Red Rock West, not seen that in ages, another good one.
Recently, Midnight Special was a great film. Bit of a blend of genre.
Trivia: True Romance almost has the same soundtrack as Badlands.
Not a road trip , but definitely a journey - The Warriors (1979).
Another vote for The Straight Story & Little Miss Sunshine too.
I read half of The Road but it shook me so much it's one of the few books I've started but never finished. I was actually dreading picking it up so there seemed no point putting myself through it. I have kids and that book still plays on my mind in darker moments.
Apart from that though, bloody brilliant, I'd recommend it to anyone!

No need to thank me.

The Warriors is a great film, with a great soundtrack.
Smokey and the Bandit!

I watched ‘It happened One Night’ again a couple of weeks ago, it remains as good as ever.
