By the way... if you think of this film as merely a "road movie", then you're thinking in a very superficial way... Vanishing Point is NOT what you could or should call a road movie. It's closer to a Western. But I'd prefer not to put it in any specific genre, since the film's pretty unique and stands on it's own.
