BREAKING AWAY
USA 1979 | 35mm 100min.
Dir. Peter Yates
Peter Yates' film stands with To Kill a Mockingbird and American Graffiti as one of the best films about small-town Americana. This charming Academy Award winner (1979, Screenplay) cycles high on comedy as four friends come to terms with life after high school. When top-notch cyclist Dave (Dennis Christopher) learns that the world's bicycling champions are always Italian, he attempts to turn himself into an Italian, affects an Italian accent, and drives his parents crazy. But everything changes when during a ride on his Masi he meets the Italian racing team, ultimately leading him and his friends (Dennis Quaid, Daniel Stern, Jackie Earle Haley) to challenge the local college boys in the town's annual bike race finishing at the track.
