Back Roads

love this film

How did Sally Field and Tommy Lee Jones get to be such big stars? Watch "Backroads" filmed near the onset of their careers and watch them pull you in. In the movie, she's a hooker and he's a stumblebum and they travel across the country hitching rides and living hand to mouth one exploit after the other. Don't expect something too deep, just have fun with it! Excellent quality picture and sound.

Bought used came in new like condition

This was just a fun movie. Two young people, with little future, down on their luck, meet and fall in love. The personalities of each actor at the beginnings of their careers, are apparent. They both go on to develop the strong points of who they are and produce some great movies as they progress through their careers. Great for Sunday afternoon viewing.

not great but good actors in mid-career or so staying busy and perhaps having fun.

Back Roads starring Sally Fields and Tommy Lee Jones is one of my husband and my favorite movies. We were thrilled to be able to find it on Amazon.com as we lost the copy we made on video. It's a classic comedy featuring these outstanding actors in their prime--as funny, romantic, and outrageous as can be with an unforgettable theme song--one you'll want to watch again and again!

Love this movie. Great price. Securely packaged and delivered.

One of the few films, perhaps the only one, that combines Sally Field and Tommy Lee Jones, both of whom are very talented, An blend of comedy and pathos, with an unusual depiction of the lives of people living on the edge, so to speak, in terms of both morals and money.

I didn't like this film one bit. It's slow and boring. Both Tommy Lee Jones and Sally Field, although great actors, were not as good as in their usual roles. The camera directions in the beginning were annoying. No, definitely not worth DVD. Would not recommend it.

Finally found it on DVD

I SAY THIS FILM ON TV IN ENGLAND IN THE 1980'S.IT IS ABOUT A DOWN AT HEEL BOXER AND A PROSTITUTE WHO HAS GIVEN HER CHILD UP FOR ADOPTION.HUMOROUS AND VERY TOUCHING IN PARTS, IT WILL REMAIN A LITTLE KNOWN CLASSIC , AND I THINK SHOULD HAVE MORE TV SHOWINGS.I HAVE BEEN HOPING TO OBTAIN THIS FILM, AND LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING IT AGAIN.

Beautiful Sally.
