When inexperienced call girl Alabama Whitman (Patricia Arquette) is paid to seduce comic-book-nerd and Elvis fanatic Clarence Worley (Christian Slater), she doesnÂ’t expect to fall for him. But these two lost souls seem to be made for each other and quickly pledge their love, marrying at Detroits city hall. Clarence discovers some newfound bravado and attempts to retrieve AlabamaÂ’s possessions from her pimp, Drexl (Gary Oldman), who isnÂ’t exactly eager to let Alabama go. Fleeing Drexls apartment, Clarence not only leaves a trail of bodies, but also inadvertently mistakes a suitcase of uncut cocaine for one with his wifeÂ’s clothing, and the chase is on. The unlikely newlyweds head for Los Angeles hoping to sell the cocaine and make enough money to leave the country. Unfortunately, they also have to contend with the mob, yuppie drug dealers and the police. Michael Rapaport is amusing as ClarenceÂ’s best friend who lives with Floyd, a stoner played by Brad Pitt. A sedate Dennis Hopper appears as ClarenceÂ’s father, who ultimately faces off with mob boss Vincenzo Coccotti (Christopher Walken). Director Tony Scott (CRIMSON TIDE, ENEMY OF THE STATE) does justice to the violence and quirkiness of Quentin TarantinoÂ’s second feature film script. (1 hr. 59 min.)
