It's about an old hippy from the 60s going to jail, and a young, modern FBI bringing him. This film sheds a light on the swinging sixties and the begining of the nineties. It's about the bond between the crim and the fed. This movie was made in 1989, although released in 1990, it is an eighties movie at heart. It is quite similar to 3;10 to Juma, and 48 hours... but still very good concidering it's lack of originality. Worth watching if your a 60's fan.
