Just saw the end of an odd "family" movie that I had never seen before called #TheReivers (1969) that #SteveMcQueen starred in between #Bullitt (1968) & #LeMans (1971).
McQueen plays a grifter with a prostitute GF who befriends a young boy who helps get him out of trouble by winning a horse race. The movie is really about the boy & his coming of age & McQueen's character mainly plays a supporting role.
McQueen seems entirely out of place playing an "aw shucks" poor white southerner & it is curious to me that he accepted a role like this especially between 2 epic films, like Bullitt & LeMans, which were more in character for him.
It was ok in a #MarkTwain & #TomSawyer kind of way but I definitely will NOT be adding it to my DVD collection of McQueen movies. LOL! 😉
