boy and what a frustrating film to watch . even though it be very good and have be a part of my collection for a number of year now . still and it hard to see the good guy and the little guy and beat up by the big guy . here one story where goliath beat david . anyway and this be an interesting supposedly true life story of how preston tucker get a raw deal form the big three car maker of the day and and by the government after he build a much good automobile in 1948. the film detail how the big boy make sure tucker company never sell any of those car . a mentioned and it madden to watch at time and to hear lie and false charge bring against a man who have the right idea about car safety and engineering and be way ahead of his time . the 1940s atmosphere in this film be very good and the old music be fun to hear and too . the cinematography be great and too and with some tinted vintage type color at time . it look wonderful on dvd . the car be super to look at and admire . jeff bridge do a solid job of portray tucker and an upbeat and positive thinking inventor . it also be refresh to see a nice and supportive family and too . i enjoy all the main actor in this film represent bridge and joan alen and martin landau and frederic forest and elias koteas and christian slater .
