Joy Ride - An Auto Theft / Based on A True Story / Video PSA

This cautionary tale was aimed towards young, thrill-seeking teens. A very good vintage 1976 film for younsters showing the consequences of joy riding in a stolen car. The production had a good script, was well filmed, acted, and directed. The two boys in this piece are quite good as two jaded teens trying to kill time. This is a based on a true story, which is what makes it a true teen driving scare film. This is a remarkably well made film about a couple of kids who steal a car, pick up their girlfriends, and go for a joy ride. All of the kids do a good job acting, and the dialog is believable. Interesting camera angles and good photography make this a very professional looking picture. It probably is not the chase that would encourage kids to joyride, but the scenes where the kids are cruising around. Public domain video.

Seems to me if the girl would have left the dude alone he could have handled the situation just fine.
