Stealing. Cheating. Killing. Who says romance is dead?



True Romance is the story of two unlikely lovers whose whirlwind romace propels them into a dangerous game of high-stakes negotiations and high-speed adventure. The pair find themselves in unexpected possession of a suitcase full of valuable mob contraband, which they plan to take from Detroit to Los Angeles. There, they plan to sell the goods and begin a new life, but the gangsters - and the police - have other ideas. Written by Quentin Tarantino, True Romance takes a hip and hard-edged look at a contemporary incarnation of the American Dream. Tony Scott directs an outstanding cast in an explosive mix of razor-sharp wit, gritty action and modern love that is a truly unforgettable film experience.

Quotes
Picture

True Romance was not directed by Quentin Tarantino, it was written by him though. However the ending was not how Quentin had originaly inteded it. In the original ending Clarence dies. Director, Scott, didn't like that ending and called in Quentin's, off and on, best friend, Roger Avary. Avary gave it a happy ending and Tarantino almost took his name off of the script. All in al, it is still an exceptional movie. I believe the scene between Walken and Hopper is the best scene I've ever seen in any movie. Their acting talents combine wonderfully to make a brilliant scene. And, I ain't no slater fan, but he holds his own, I gotta say. Check it out, you'll like it, I promise.
