Poster for True Romance (1993)

True Romance (1993)

Location: Reitz Union Cinema

Description

Come celebrate Valentine’s Day with this outlandish romantic crime film. Written by Quentin Tarantino and directed by Tony Scott (Top Gun), True Romance rides a fine line between raucous comedy and violent excess. Christian Slater plays Clarence, the comic-book lover who meets a beguiling prostitute named Alabama (Patricia Arquette), confronts her vicious pimp (Gary Oldman), and embarks on a cross-country odyssey with $5 million worth of Mafia cocaine. Brutal, profane, and totally outrageous, True Romance has a supporting cast that includes Dennis Hopper, Christopher Walken, Brad Pitt, and Val Kilmer (as the ghost of Elvis!). You can be sure this movie will never be boring!

 

Stealing, Cheating, Killing. Who said romance is dead?
