STAR CROSSED ROADS
aka - JAILBREAKIN - BREAKIN' OUT - THE BALLAD OF BILLIE BLUE




Starring Erik Estrada, Marty Allen, Ray Danton, Renny Roker, Sherry Miles and Jason Ledger. 1972.

Billie Blue and Justin Weeks. They're a couple of caged losers - and their luck is about to get worse. Billie is a failed country-western singer and a champion washout. His unfaithful wife murdered his manager and let Billie take the rap. Then she abandoned their child and turned to a life of prostitution. Now all Billie wants is to do his time and get out. Then he can set things free.

But Justin has another plan: escape. This hot-headed youth is halfway through a 20 year sentence - and he's getting impatient. He'll listen to no one - and stop at nothing - in his relentless effort to break out. And when he meets Billie, he sees the singing jailmate as a perfect decoy in a prison break: If Billie can distract the guards with a song, Justin might have just enough time to break his chains and cut through the prison's barbed wire. But will it work? ...

Intense yet ultimately uplifting story of good men forced down the road to ruin... where jailbreakin' is the only way out!
