Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Best for people who like their stories with a little danger and people who need a good giggle. Expect bad people, worse choices and a few surprises. Shelve it next to Family Plot.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Breezy, at 1 hr 58 min.
What might put you off
  • Rated PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • Made in 1975: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.

When an American booze smuggler gets murdered in Prohibition-era Mexico, his widow, a nightclub singer, joins forces with her lover and a desperate loner to become rum-runners to the U.S.
