The Reivers (1969) follows the nostalgic journey of an elderly man recalling his formative experiences from six decades prior. The story unfolds in rural Mississippi, where Lucius's grandfather acquires the first automobile in the vicinity, a vibrant yellow Winton Flyer. In his absence, the plantation's handyman, Boon Hogganbeck, devises a plan to borrow the car, with Lucius in tow. Unbeknownst to them, Ned, a mulatto and Lucius's presumed cousin, stows away. The trio embarks on a journey to Memphis, where Boon's sweetheart resides in a brothel, Ned trades the car for a racehorse, and Lucius encounters the complexities of adulthood, including racism, vice, and the potential for honor and bravery. The narrative explores whether redemption is possible for these mischievous characters.
