"I just passed another Kojak with a Kodak."
"This place is crawlin' with bears."
Right, so I was thinking, trucker movies, that is movies about/with heavy involvement from truckers. If I were going to put together a marathon of trucker movies, what would it include.
Well, the first thing any good trucker movie needs is heavy use of the CB radio. And they have to use trucker speak when using it.
The second requirement is of course a memorable theme song. All the best trucker movies have a very memorable theme song.
Third, run ins with the law. This is a must. State troopers can work, but a Sheriff is best. Chase scenes, and at least one scene involing an attempted roadblock.
I know what you're thinking, but no, arm wrestling is not a requirement. but it is appreciated. Truckstop dinner scences are also a plus.
Ok, so here comes the audience participation part where you name off some of the best trucker movies.
The list so far:
Smokey and the Bandit
Convoy
