Tired of the same old Hollywood Blockbusters and well tread "classics"? Take a detour down a different movie path. A Film Detour.
In each episode John and Bob, two lifelong film buddies, take you off road to one of their favorite, but not so well known, classic films. Films that are beautiful, offbeat and original.
In 1971, the masterful director Monte Hellman headed out onto Route 66 with a script by Rudy Wurlitzer, a 55 Chevy, a Driver, a Mechanic, a Girl, an "Orbit Orange" Pontiac GTO and created a masterpiece. Join us for this completely unique film that only Monte Hellman could deliver. No race car driving or mechanic experience needed.

Don Seigel - Dirty Harry - Ep27
Don Seigel was a classic director. He learned his craft and honed his skills in the Hollywood studio system. He could handle any genre, subject, or budget that was handed to him. A master of pacing and timing, his undeniable stamp is on every picture he ever made. His partnership with Clint Eastwood in the 1970's stands as a high watermark for both of their careers. So pour yourself your favorite drink, grab some popcorn & pull up a comfortable chair and join us as we examine the remarkable career of Don Seigel, with a special emphasis on one of his finest: Dirty Harry.
