Paul Koslo and Dennis Fimple star in Bootleggers as cousins who are following
the Pruitt family business of making mooonshine. As family patriarch Slim
Pickens says, the soil where they live is so rocky and thin it won't grow decent
crops so what is there left to do?
It would be a good life other than the fact the Pruitts have a blood feud going with another Arkansas hill family the Woodalls who are also business rivals.
Shot in Arkansas Bootleggers is set during the Roaring 20s and has a nice bit of authenticity to it. Dennis Fimple sees Al Capone as some kind of role model and when you come down to it, their feud with the Woodalls is no different than Capone's with Bugs Moran.
Jaclyn Smith is 'introduced' here and she sure looks different than she would be on Charlie's Angels. You can hardly believe this hillbilly girl is Kelly Garrett and who sold a line of beauty products.
Bootleggers never got a New York or Hollywood premiere. But I'm sure it did brisk red state business.
