Towing

About This Movie

Towing is a curious little comedy from 1978 that delves into the underbelly of a shady towing company. It's not your typical buddy film, but instead, we see these two bar maids, who are a bit rough around the edges, trying to tackle this absurd situation head-on. The pacing has a leisurely charm, allowing the humorous moments to breathe, which is kind of nice. The performances, while not award-winning, have a certain raw energy that makes you feel for these characters. The practical effects? Well, they’re pretty basic, but it adds to the film's vintage charm. It's really one of those lesser-known gems that can provide a laugh if you're in the right mood. Definitely stands out with its peculiar premise.

Towing is one of those films that collectors might stumble upon while sifting through obscure titles. It hasn't received a ton of attention over the years, which makes it a bit scarce on physical formats. I’ve seen it pop up occasionally on VHS, but decent copies are harder to come by. There’s definitely a niche interest among collectors who appreciate offbeat comedies, so if you find a clean print, it might be worth snagging.
