The Big Picture Road trip movies are a staple of cinema, whether as hijinks-filled adventures with characters who bond on a lengthy drive or more dramatic features about healing, confronting personal demons, or presenting the current state of society, among other things.
The trailer begins with TJ getting much-needed advice from an old mechanic friend about taking advantage of the few opportunities he can get in a small town. Opportunity soon comes knocking when, on his 18th birthday, a stranger comes to give him the keys to a timeworn '68 convertible at the behest of his father, a rock star and ex-convict whom he hasn't seen since he was ten.
TJ won't be alone on his journey though, as his best friend Jake, played by The Midnight Club alum William Chris Sumpter, joins him as his road trip buddy for part of the way. Between the unreliable engine, the coffin welded to the floor of the trunk, and the unwanted police attention the car draws, he's quick to bow out, though, out of fear that TJ's father has more nefarious plans for them.
