Director Howard Hawks said of this movie that it was about “three old-fashioned hot love stories about these racers and their girls. They have their own code. They kid about danger.

.357 Magnum (1977)
What if Nick Millard made a crime movie? He did. Agents Johnny Hightower (Marland Proctor) and Steve Barrett (James Whitworth) are after a bad guy played by Millard, but to be honest, this movie may claim to be an action film, but it’s in the world Millard, so it feels like you’ve taken the wrong […]
