Honky Tonk Freeway is a comedy film, released in August 1981 by Universal Studios. The film's plot centers around the residents of a small, fictional Florida tourist town named Ticlaw, as they react to news that a new highway being constructed near their town will not include an exit for them (thus diminishing their tourism trade). It included a number of ongoing vignettes featuring various offbeat characters (a dysfunctional family vacationing in a motor home, an elderly couple who are retiring to Florida, a nymphomaniac waitress traveling with her deceased mother's ashes, a pair of none-too-bright bank robbers attempting to flee with their loot, a pair of traveling nuns), whose paths all converge in Ticlaw over the course of an evening.
The cast featured William Devane (as Ticlaw's mayor), Teri Garr, Howard Hesseman, Beverly D'Angelo, Beau Bridges, and acting legends Jessica Tandy, Hume Cronyn, and Geraldine Page.
