I've just finished watching 'Vanishing Point' (see: http://tinyurl.com/uuvy4
for details) a 1971 Cult 'road movie'. Which has a somewhat UA feel about
it.
The plot is very thin, the films anti-hero, an archetypical loser, bets he
can drive from Denver to San Francisco in under 15 hours. During the ensuing
series of Police chases he is transformed into a (reluctant) Counter-Culture
hero and if the final seqence of the film isn't an Ascencion I don't know
what is.
It might be useable as the basis for a UA scenario....
"...it's very pukka and bigglesish but still very interesting, talk about on
a wing and a prayer!"
