Bootleggers (1974)
Director: Charles B Pierce
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Any film which actually stars Slim Pickens can't be all good, and Bootleggers isn't remotely good. It's a thuddingly dull yarn about two Arkansas roisterers and their feud with a neighbouring family. The actors show an understandable reluctance to give their dialogue zing ('I gotta do what I gotta do' is the most notable chestnut), and director Pierce (whose name proliferates over the credits to an unseemly degree) stages events with a dramatic ineptness and visual crudity usually consigned to rock-bottom porno.Author: GB
