The Late Film: Scarecrow

BBC One
on BBC One London

starring
Gene Hackman and Al Pacino
Max and Lionel are two of the world's losers.
When they meet, hitch-hiking on a deserted
Californian road, they strike up an unlikely, but deep, relationship. Max, newly released from prison, is older, tougher. 'Lion', back from six years at sea, is a natural clown, with little respect for authority. They cross country, hoping to start a new life together in Pittsburgh. But the duo have a knack of attracting trouble and their trip proves savagely eventful before the disturbing journey's end.
