This movie is a really good example of what i think Victor was talking about.I totally get off on this movie's "oldness". The whole road aspect with the bus and motels and hitchhiking in the early 30s is absolutely fascinating to me. It was such an interesting transitional time, Americans were finding a new way to satisfy their urge to wander and explore with cheap cars and new roads. The movie is a valuable time capsule because all that stuff is now gone.
Yet the story of the spoiled heiress and the gruff guy chasing her is timeless. People can still relate to it today because these types of people still exist. The pick-up-artist on the bus- we all know that guy, right? The script kept them doing completely believable things. So, even though the movie is dated, it's still a timeless story and this is what makes it a great film.
