Monte Hellman and Two-Lane Blacktop in High Performance Pontiac

In an extensive new interview in the June 2008 issue of High Performance Pontiac magazine, Two-Lane Blacktop director Monte Hellman describes his inspirations and relays behind-the-scenes anecdotes about the making of his iconic 1971 road movie. He reveals that his other favorite road movie is La strada, that Ingmar Bergman's Persona was an influence on the ending of Two-Lane, and that he is proud that "the DVD is doing so well, it's the first time I can really say it's a hit."
