Episode 3 - The Rest of the Story
“Thunder Road” was loosely based in reality, the story of a moonshine runner in 1952 who crashed to a deathly end on Kingston Pike in Knoxville, Tn. Evidently, the incident was either witnessed or passed on to Mitchum, inspiring the movie.
Slim Merritt, my great grandfather, cab operator, and moonshine runner, predates “Thunder Road” by 20 years. I believe that Slim was the Lucas Doolin sort of character, staying one step ahead of the law... or should I say one foot in the grave?
