Did you know

- GoofsWhen the car Doyle steals is hit by the truck and gets pushed off the road the truck has a broken headlight. A moment later as it the truck screeches to a stop both headlights are working again.
- Crazy creditsExtra footage of 'Dutch" shooting off fireworks plays behind end credits
- Alternate versionsAlthough classified uncut at 12 for UK theatrical release, because the category was not available on video at the time, the UK video release is cut by 2s to remove a use of strong language for a PG rating.

Featured review
Wow! What a funny film. What I liked about the film was how these two different characters try to get along - both from different backgrounds - be it culturally, economically or living status.
The film gets you thinking - can these two people eventually learn to get along, and above all, make it home for Thanksgiving?
At first, you think the spoiled rich kid needs a good boot in the bum, but all he needed was someone to talk to and have a shoulder to lean on - his dad had left his mum - a broken family. Towards the end of the film, the divorced dad lets a bomb drop - he wants his ex-wife out of her house (he paid for).
I'm from Australia - and this film was titled "Driving Me Crazy". I learned recently that the U.S. called this film "Dutch", named after Ed O'Neill's character Dutch Dooley.
No matter where you go in this world, and whoever you may meet, a friendship can develop - don't forget that.
If you enjoy this movie, please look at the following buddy - road movies:
Midnight Run, The Odd Couple 2, Road Trip, Planes,Trains and Automobiles
