Kino Lorber have revealed that they are preparing a Blu-ray release of John Schlesinger's film
Honky Tonk Freeway (1981), starring William Devane, Beverly D'Angelo, Hume Cronyn, Jessica Tandy, and Beau Bridges. The release is expected to arrive on the market early next year.
Synopsis: When a tiny town in Florida is passed over by the new interstate highway, corrupt Mayor Kirby (William Devane) and his cronies plaster the freeway with illegal billboards that draw unsuspecting tourists to the mayor's tacky amusement park. The unwilling visitors include squabbling suburban parents Snapper (Howard Hesseman) and Ericka (Teri Garr), despondent waitress Carmen (Beverly D'Angelo), aspiring children's book author Duane (Beau Bridges) and a drug-addled hitchhiker (Daniel Stern).
