You've Got To Walk It Like You Talk It or You'll Lose That Beat(Film, 1971)

You've Got to Walk It Like You Talk It or You'll Lose That Beat is a 1971 low-budget comedy-drama film directed by Peter Locke and starring Zalman King. The story concerns a young hippie and his search in New York City for the meaning of life. The film is notable for early-career appearances by several artists: Richard Pryor has a small role playing his signature "wino" character; Wes Craven made his professional debut as the film's editor; the film's soundtrack was co-written and performed by Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, who went on to form Steely Dan. The film is considered lost, although the soundtrack survives. ()
