Bobbie
Joe and the Outlaw was not precisely an auspicious screen
debut for Lynda. There is no great shortage of
guy-and-girl-on-the-lam-from-the-law films and this one has all
the imitative accouterments: Redneck Southern sheriffs, car
demolition, blood (though not a lot), sex (ditto), country-styler
music (including one song performed by Lynda) and extremely dumb
plot points. Tricked into being an accomplice to murder, the
Outlaw (Gortner) must get out of town with his woman, Bobbie Joe
(Carter). |
