The Intermezzo musical triangle relocated in country-western country, and making a prized sex object out of Willie Nelson, that easy alliance between the redneck and the hippie, whose physical attributes might have been thought to make him a closer cousin to Gabby Hayes than to Leslie Howard. The flimsy narrative is neatly dissolved by means of an impressionistic filming technique of quick, light strokes and niggling dabs. Occasional rest-stops are taken to inch the story forward, but never for very long or very far. Robby Müller, the nimble photographer on several Wim Wenders outings, was a logical choice to shoot this concert-tour road movie, and the results are truly outstanding. With Dyan Cannon, Amy Irving, and Slim Pickens; directed by Jerry Schatzberg. (1980) — Duncan Shepherd
