Scarecrow

“The road leads itself to somewhere.”

Two men meet on a California road, one just out of prison and the other just back from years at sea, and they decide to travel east together. Max Millan (Gene Hackman) and Lion Delbuchi (Al Pacino) bum their way across the country toward Pittsburgh, stopping to see women who will feed them. Jerry Schatzberg follows them with a car wash they can barely afford as the plan, and everything they have riding on each other.
