Crossroads (1986) Walter Hill (USA)
Walter Hill's classic depiction of a city boy who yearns to be a true bluesman, has aged little since its release in 86. Karate Kid Raplph Macchio features (his guitar parts are all played by Ry Cooder) alongside Joe Senecea and Jami Gertz. The only odd thing about this movie is Joe Seneca plays Willie Brown, a bluesman who has been dead since 1952. No biggie, I guess.

Superb performances from Harry Dean-Stanton (as always), Dean Stockwell and Natassja Kinski. I don't know what else to say, other than watch it.

Performance is a pretty good soundtrack, Ry Cooder's guitar on Memo From Turner is fucking awesome.
