Dirty Mary Crazy Larry isn't a deep film. You aren't going to learn a lot about people watching this. The dialog is sophomoric and simple and the first 30 minutes tend to crawl. However, as the film progress' there is an anticipation, a desire to see it to the end.
In my opinion the film wouldn't be much if it hadn't been for Susan George. By her own admission one doesn't have to dig too deep to perform in this role but she gave it all she had and she did indeed dig deep to fill out her character to the fullest. And it shows. And she's robust enough to handle anything Peter Fonda could dish out while driving on these open roads.
The interesting fact is that the film is directed a British man who captured the American heartland perfectly. The film is beautifully shot and the abrupt ending will leave you stunned and speechless, sitting in your seat staring at the screen.
Nothing profound here but it was good to see this again after so many years.
