True Romance - 5 stars out of 5 stars


Released in 1993 and running 120 minutes this movie beats Pulp fiction by 1 year and I also believe is a better picture.It's very violent to be sure with lots of bad language to boot,but,it's adult fun to the absorb max.The acting is top notch and my 2 favorites are a short stint by Gary Oldman as a drug dealing pimp Drexl Spivey and Christopher Walken as a mob enforcer Vincenzo Coccotti .The rest of the cast is outstanding and 2 much to list but Samuel L  Jackson was Pulp is also in this film as well as Brad Pitt and James Gandolfini and Dennis Hopper and well you get the picture.The story centers on a film buff ,Christian Slater as Clarence Worley, whose work friends get him a whore, Patricia Arquette as Alabama Whitman, to do him in a movie theater as a birthday present. Well they fall in love instead and a wild cross country trip to sell coke they stole from Alabama's pimp Drexl after Clarence shot him in the face like a dog,per Elvis Presley's spirt telling him to,insues.Well that coke belonged to the mob and well Clarence has a Holly wood wanna be friend who can sell the coke to studio bigs and well some LA cops are looking to do a big time bust and well,there be a big crash a comm'in !!!!The final shootout day of reckoning is something to see.Trailer URL follows pix
