Synopsis: A Vietnam War veteran is committed to a psychiatrical institution. He escapes. On his way to find some friends with whom he plans to start a business, he meets a young woman. The two get involved in several mishaps which, oddly, brings them together. They will help each other come to terms with some unresolved issues of their own.
Appraisal (mild spoiler): Apparently, this is an attempt at addressing the theme of combat-related post-traumatic stress via romance and adventure on the road. The approach seems contrived; there is slapstick, violence, a car race, but nothing - not even the revelation at the ending - is particularly memorable or inspired.
