There are a couple scenes in this flick that I almost couldn't believe were actually done live on camera were it not for mine own eyes: one a high speed chase involving a police helicopter flying perilously close to the aforementioned Charger--a scene with an added element of pathos since the late Vic Morrow was a passenger on this non fatal helicopter ride--and the ironic climactic scene, which I shan't spoil for anyone that has never watched this film, but which is a pretty amazing shot to see for the first time and would probably be done in CGI if filmed today.
Starring Peter Fonda--with his long flowing locks looking startlingly similar here to a pre-op Bruce Jenner--and an unbilled cameo by Roddy McDowall, Dirty Mary Crazy Larry is a great action car chase flick; it would make a good double feature with Tanatino's Death Proof.
Here's the trailer:
