This modern madcap involves bungled hold-ups, a car chase starring a horse, teepee motels, and at its heart, a love story. Eddy, a small-time bad guy with terrible instincts, ends up in a Texas jail—and that’s just the beginning of his trouble. His fiancée Jeannie heads there to spring him, and Sydney, a Chicago gun for hire, is on his way too—with other intentions. When Jeannie crashes her car into local guy HR’s truck, the dominos of chance tumble. This screwball crime comedy fuses the best traditions of Western films and the modern chaos of the Coen Brothers. And much like Raising Arizona, the desperation fueling these characters is real and humane. These four souls start out in a caper and end up in a romance, much to their happy surprise. It goes to show that in this life, sometimes it’s more dangerous to give up than to keep going, even when you’ve already gone too far.
