Robert Blake turns in a brilliant portrayal of a diminutive motorcycle cop John Wintergreen. He was nominated for a Golden Globe for his on-target performance. The film also stars acclaimed character actor Billy “Green” Bush. Filmed in Monument Valley. If you look closely, you may actually catch a glimpse of Nick Nolte as a hippie in a commune.

"You're supposed to listen to your inner voices. They tell you what to do. Ain't that funny how people do all kinds of things and most of it's just a lot of bullshit. You know what? Ninety percent of the things I've done in my life ain't as important as you sweeping that floor or sitting there eating that sandwich. You know why? Because you listen to yourself. Me, I listen to everybody in the whole damn world except me. I'd like to start all over again, ain't that the damndest thing?"

—'Big John' Wintergreen
