Goin’ Down the Road (1970)

01 Mar

90m; Canada

Director: Donald Shebib

Cast: Doug McGrath, Paul Bradley and Jayne Eastwood

Synopsis (IMDB): Story of desolation as two friends travel from Nova Scotia to Toronto in hope of finding a better life. Drifting from job to job: bottling plant, car wash, bowling alley, newspaper delivery, and in between enjoying the night life of the big city. Their previous life is looking better all the time. This movie is a time capsule of Toronto’s Yonge Street – record stores (defunct A&A’s), bars, and old neighbourhood side streets.
