Additional Info:
An ode to transportation, as well as to every possible kind of cinematic movement, Epstein’s film features the intrigue of a love triangle and the theme of a desire for world travel. It carries the plot over a great deal of terrain in the process. Even with its hammy acting and over-deliberate dialogue, the film features moments of both visual and audio bravado typical of Epstein’s penchant for derailing narrative lines with cinematic excesses.
