[REL] Buster & Billie (1974) [USA]

Movies that don't quite meet the requirements to be on-topic for FLM, maybe because the actors are too old or screen time is too small.

I have this movie in my possession.

I will share it on eMule only if there is an interest in me releasing it here on FLM, bearing in mind that none of the cast are children, as aren’t (as iv said so many times) the casts of most of David Hamiltons releases here.

This is a very rare classic sort after title that has a strong coming-of-age theme, contains sexual situations, one of which is tragic & violent.

If its not welcomed here, no sweat! :)

IMDB View
I also subscribe to the views of other IMDB writers concerning this film. BUSTER AND BILLIE made an enormous impression on my consciousness as a film viewer. I first saw it years ago, very late at night. Being teenaged at the time, this story of unconventional love in 1948 Georgia proved to be thoroughly eye-opening. This film affected me so much that, as I did not have a copy of it, I actually advertised in a newspaper for it, and someone forwarded a dubbed copy to me!

The excellent acting of Joan Goodfellow (Billie) and Jan-Michael Vincent (Buster) made watching this film a great experience. Their belief in the love of these two characters is reflected in their acting, reactions, and the little moments that these characters share. I have to admit that I have seen the film many times, but it is never a boring or predictable experience, even though one has knowledge of how it ends.

While this film has been described as cliched and a film with only a desparate appeal to oversexed teenagers, this is simply not true. It tells a good story beautifully, with great acting, and period atmosphere. If only the films of the 1990s and the 2000s could be like this.

I say post and be damned !!

I'd like to see it. Couldn't you post it here in the General forum for "un-related discussion" and stay within the rules?

Its an idea; but might be even better in non-interest if I dont release it in the States, or maybe both :)

I moved this to non-interest today because I really cant deny that they are well over the age of interest, and I don’t want to upset anyone.

I just felt I needed to post this because it really is a good classic coming-of-age story that should appeal to some, even though they have obviously come of age already.
