Five Minutes to Love

The exploitative crime caper Five Minutes to Love takes place largely in a San Diego junkyard. Paul Leder plays the junkyard's owner, who maintains a profitable sideline in stolen vehicles. When the cops begin bearing down, Leder sets up innocent motorist Will Gregory as the fall guy. Beaten nearly senseless by a corrupt police sergeant, Gregory is freed when Leder selects another patsy, auto mechanic King Moody. The finale offers plenty of bloodshed, with both Gregory and Leder dishing it out and taking it. Watch for a young Rue McClanahan as "Poochie, the girl from the shacks." Five Minutes to Love was originally released as The Rotten Apple.
