    Editorial Reviews

    Quentin Tarantino scripted this wild and wooly blend of action and dark comedy, which reached theaters a year before his breakthrough hit Pulp Fiction. Clarence Worley (Christian Slater) is a well-meaning but socially unskilled comic-shop clerk whose idea of a big night out is catching a Sonny Chiba triple-feature at a downtown grindhouse. Clarence is celebrating his birthday in just such a manner when he meets a beautiful girl named Alabama (Patricia Arquette), and it's love at first sight for both of them. Clarence's enthusiasm isn't dampened much when he discovers Alabama is actually a prostitute who was paid by his boss to bump into him; she's only been in the business for a few days, and is more than eager to give up streetwalking to be with Clarence. However, Alabama is certain her pimp, Drexl (Gary Oldman), will not be happy; he's an ill-mannered sort with mob connections and a fondness for violence. Chivalrous Clarence offers to break the news to Drexl and collect her belongings, but he doesn't tell her he also plans to kill Drexl while he's there; a melee breaks out that leaves Drexl and his henchmen dead. Clarence grabs a suitcase that he thinks contains Alabama's clothes, but he discovers it instead holds five million dollars' worth of cocaine. The couple hits the road for California, planning to sell the dope and enjoy the good life in South America with the proceeds, but soon a group of very unhappy underworld characters are after them, as well as the police. True Romance also stars Dennis Hopper as Clarence's father, Christopher Walken as a mob boss who wants his cocaine back, Brad Pitt as a cheerful stoner, and Val Kilmer as the ghost of Elvis Presley.

    July 01, 2009: ith a cast that includes Dennis Hopper, Christopher Walken, Brad Pitt and especially written by legendary filmmaker Quentin Tarantino, True Romance stands above and beyond most of the films of the 90's. When shy Clarence meets his call-girl wife Alabama, they decide to leave their old life behind. However, first he must right some wrongs involving drug-dealer/pimp played by Gary Oldman. This, of course, doesn't go as planned and they go on the run to California with a suitcase full of drugs. While Director Tony Scott's view does the film justice, the stand out element is the witty dialogue. The screenplay produced by Tarantino is virtually unmatched. Another important point, is the way the actors effortlessly flow off one another, simply adding to its authenticity. This movie should definetly be part of your collection.
