(I'm French excuse my bad English) Dead end drive in is a very good film. Of course images and music seem old but the idea is universal. Do not accept the fatality, refuse the way somebody else want to show you and fight till death to have your liberty back. In a world of corruption and dishonesty be upright and do your best to feel free. This film is excellent, the message is sane and hopeful.
