“Eugene Martone: I’m a blues man!
Willie Brown: Blues man shit.”
Willie “Blind Dog Fulton Smoke House” Brown isn’t very impressed with Eugene (played by a post-Karate Kid Ralph Macchio) in Crossroads (1986), not to be confused with the shitty Britney Spears movie.
The film itself is a bit of a gem. It’s a road movie about a cocky classically-trained guitarist and a grumpy old harmonica player who travel across America, following in the shoes of the legendary blues guitarist, Robert Johnson. The film’s spectacular end sequence will live long in the memory too.
