1959 Pink Thunderbird

By: James McLure         Directed by: Kymberly Mellen

The hottest thing to hit Maynard, Texas was Roy in his 1959 pink Thunderbird. Roy and Elizabeth marry after high school and still dream of those summer nights in the T-Bird. Hattie and Amy bring catty tension to an afternoon filled with Laundry & Bourbon, a one-act with the girls' side of the story. In Lone Star, the boys' version, Roy and his brother Ray tie one on outside Angel's Bar. Roy's different since his return from Vietnam and the night takes a wrong turn when Cletis shows up with horrible news. 1959 Pink Thunderbird is full of road dust, but it sure was a sweet ride years ago.
