Based on the novel by William Faulkner, THE REIVERS tells the story of a young boy who leaves home and sets out on a journey with his best friend and Boon Hogganbeck (McQueen), his family's handyman. During the trip from Jefferson to Memphis, the trio learns some valuable life lessons. (official distributor synopsis)
Reviews (1)
I've only ever read about Faulkner adaptations. The early ones had problems with censors and big stars, while the later ones became authentic treatises on the nature of the American South. So what’s The Reivers all about? It’s a wide-angle color adventure film about growing up in a time when having a car was a big deal. Starring Steve McQueen, just to make sure.
