Five Minutes to Love

A 1963 American exploitation drama directed by John Hayes, starring Rue McClanahan (later of The Golden Girls) as Poochie, a woman living in a junkyard. A young couple, Ben and Edna, are traveling to California with their baby when their car breaks down. Ben walks to a nearby junkyard for a spare part, where the seedy owner Harry frames him for selling stolen auto parts. When Ben fails to return, Edna goes looking for him and is chased around the junkyard by Harry's strange, dim-witted friend Blowhard. The film was critically lambasted and later picked up by exploitation filmmaker Kroger Babb. Also known as The Rotten Apple, Junk Yard Love, and It Only Takes Five Minutes.
