Tracks is a 1976 American drama film written and directed by Henry Jaglom. The film stars Dennis Hopper, Taryn Power and Dean Stockwell. The story involves a returned Vietnam veteran escorting a fellow soldier's coffin across the United States for burial.

Fluid sand animation and brilliant back lit landscapes create a dreamlike vision of the African savannah as animals gather at a waterhole for an evening drink.

By a brilliant and timely stroke of luck the filmmakers were able to tag along with a "Relic Hunter" (1999) 2nd unit crew to shoot all the antique steam train footage.

'Tracks' is based on the true-story of a middle class white suburban teenagers who unknowingly committed a senseless act of violence in July of 1982. Peter Madigan (played by newcomer, Chris Gunn) and his friends spent countless summer nights on the train tracks in Fairlawn, New Jersey when one evening, they mindlessly threw a switch and derailed an oncoming train resulting in the death of its conductor. This case made history in the New Jersey judicial system and these teenagers (who, at the time, were between the ages of 14 and 16) were the first in the state to be tried and convicted as adults. 'Tracks' chronicles their descent with a striking visual portrayal of a boy who made a mistake, paid the consequences and got back on 'track.' Written by Anonymous
