I saw it in a theater. When it finished, a guy yelled out, "God bless America." I'll never forget that. I'm sure you know he was being sarcastic. That's not a powerful enough word for the moment.

I drove thru the South in '68 with long hair. Had I not been driving a race car hauler, I'm sure I would have been beaten up, if not worse. We had a flat tire on the truck and it seemed like we weren't going to be able to buy a replacement until we opened the doors on the trailer. Even tho it was a formula car in stock car territory, the car opened doors for us.

It was a bad time to be a long hair south of the Mason Dixon.
