A fractured Vietnam vet on a train. Hallucinations bleeding into reality. And Dennis Hopper at his most unhinged.

Henry Jaglom’s 1976 film Tracks is getting a new 4K restoration and two screenings at Manhattan’s Roxy Cinema next month. The film follows a sergeant escorting a fallen soldier’s body across America by train, his mind warped by war trauma as passengers blur between real and imagined.

Hopper leads the cast alongside Dean Stockwell and Taryn Power, Tyrone’s daughter, in what J. Hoberman called “both a terminal road film and the first post-Vietnam movie.” Variety praised it as “incisive” and “revelatory” when it premiered at Cannes in 1976, but the film never found wide distribution. It’s a buried New Hollywood indie that got lost in the shuffle.

Jaglom, who got his start editing Easy Rider with Jack Nicholson, went on to direct over 20 films and spent years recording legendary lunch conversations with Orson Welles. He passed away in 2025.

The restoration comes from Hope Runs High, a New York distributor focused on rediscovering overlooked work by women, LGBTQ+ filmmakers, and people of color, plus reappraising classics like this one. Screenings happen November 11 at 7pm, with a post-screening Q&A, and November 22 at 5:30pm.

For a generation that lived through Vietnam and couldn’t talk about it, Tracks tried to show what came home on that train.
