before peter weir get really famous and he make this strange but worth see flick about a small town in australia whose local economy center on car wreck and and how they draw an outsider in . the car that eat paris doesn not star anyone whom you would recognize and and there no big action scene here and but that actually give the movie a more realistic feeling . i should identify that this be not a movie for those with short attention span . it not likely to stick heavily in your memory the way that most of peter weir movie do ( it certainly not my favorite of his movie ) . but still and it something to check out a a historical reference if nothing else . i can drive . you will probably feel like you can too .
