  • POSTER TAGLINE & DESCRIPTION

    1972 Martin Scorsese AIP romantic train robbery crime thriller ("America in the 30's was a free country. Bertha was jes' a little bit free'er than most."; "Kissing and killing... One was her hobby the other more like a business..."; "Based on characters contained in 'Sisters of the Road' - the autobiography of Boxcar Bertha as told to Dr. Ben L. Reitman."; produced by Roger Corman) starring Barbara Hershey (in the title role as Boxcar Bertha), David Carradine, Barry Primus, Bernie Casey, and John Carradine. Note that during this movie, Barbara Hershey began a longtime affair with David Carradine. Both known as "free spirits", they never married, but she called herself "Barbara Seagull", and together they had a child who they named "Free" (he was called "Free Seagull" by some, but his birth certificate said "Free Carradine", and later he changed his name to "Tom Carradine"!).
