Hard-luck drifters with big dreams and empty pockets join forces on the open highway in Jerry Schatzberg’s Scarecrow. Effortlessly swinging between funny, heartwarming, and melancholic, the film shows us America from the sidelines, seen through the eyes of two societal outcasts. The masterful performances by Hackman and Pacino influenced a generation of actors to follow (including our presenter Sean Penn!) Along with the glowing landscape photography by Vilmos Zsigmond, Scarecrow makes for a unforgettable postcard of dusty American dreams.
