Synopsis

Lovers Mickey and Mallory Knox, both products of abusive upbringings, murder Mallory’s lecherous parents and go on a cross-country killing spree. They quickly become a media sensation thanks to an obsessive tabloid journalist who follows them everywhere, elevating them to cult hero status.

Our take

Born from a Quentin Tarantino script, this acerbic satire was reimagined by Oliver Stone to the point that the original author disowned it. Thankfully Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis bewitch in a hallucinatory, road-movie fantasy whose form is as experimental as its concept is bold.
