- Quotes
Al Fountain: I can't believe it. I've been looking all over for this place. I don't know why, really. I spent a couple of days there when I was a kid, and, and I just remember having a really good time.
Old Motel Clerk: Me, too. My brother and I drowned a cat there once.
Al Fountain: Is that right?
- Alternate versionsIn a cut scene right before reaching Bambi's Bar, Kid tells Al that he wanted to join the Air Force after high school because they wanted him to be a test pilot. Al then sees a man walking backwards across the street. He asks Kid what he sees, and Kid confirms it. Kid pulls alongside the man at a stop sign, and asks why he's walking backwards. The man replies because he feels like it. Kid then tells him that if he does it in front of his car, he'll run over him. Kid screeches away from the stop sign and almost hits the man.
Featured review
One of my favourite Films of all time. Top notch performances all round especially turturro and Sam rockwell.
Sad,funny,inspiring and always entertaining this is a film that stays in your mind forever and one to watch over and over again.
The Cinematography is sublime, while the screenplay is spot on.
For Film fans who like their films with a great story .
Not for the blockbuster merchants.
In short : A Classic.
Do yourself a favour and rent this movie out.
