When I randomly chose to watch this on a Tubi, I had no idea what I'd found. It took me all of 10 minutes to discover that this 1970 flick could easily be the inspiration for the "Dukes of Hazard," a 70s Good 'Ol Boyz moonshine-based series.
There's a few adjustments, but the basic idea is the same. "Dukes" was centered on 2 brothers whose family has been running moonshine for generations. "The Girls" are sisters who run a still, in an area littered with stills, apparently.
Both have inept sheriffs and goofball deputies. But "The Girls" sheriff is more laid back than dumb, as in "Dukes."
Both have bloviating politicians. Boss Hogg was the County Commissioner of Hazard County, and Casey Kasem is something connected to Washington, cuz he keeps threatening to "tell them back in Washington!"
While, both have lots of fast cars, hillbilly jokes and peppy banjo music, "Dukes" was on network T. V. "The Girls" has rape, plenty of senseless violence as well as the fast cars.
I don't have much more to say about it, other than if you remember the Duke Brothers' car, the General Lee, fondly you might just like this flick.
