Based on Real Events, Crime, Coming of Age,
This is a film about what happens when you start something you just can't stop. But not because of fear, rather because of pride and reputation. It's a fascinating look into cause and effect--an irrational act in the heat-of-the-moment leads to a series of unbelievable, senseless killings.
Beautiful scenes of the upper-Midwest grasslands and prairie add a haunting quality to the tale. I was reminded of the Coen Brothers' Fargo on many occasion. Perhaps the quiet, small-town isolation can breed a kind of boredom that sometimes goes out of control. Both Sissy Spacek and Martin Sheen give tremendous performances as the young, odd couple.
