Breakdown

Breakdown


Rated: R
When Jeff (Kurt Russell) sets off cross-country from Boston to San Diego with his wife Amy (Kathleen Quinlan), he thinks he is leaving his troubles behind and moving on towards fantastic new beginnings. Then, while taking the 'scenic route' through the beautiful but vast, desolate spaces of the desert Southwest, their car breaks down. Jeff and Amy find themselves stranded on a seldom-traveled road, many miles from the nearest human habitation. Fortunately, help appears at had as an 18 wheeler semi truck comes into view on the horizon. The driver is Red (J.T. Walsh), an over-the-road trucker. Immaculate and professional, he seems to harken back to a time when long-haul truckers were "knights of the road." He offers Jeff and Amy a ride to Belle's Diner, the nearest place along this lonely stretch of highway, where they can escape the hot sun and call for a tow truck. After initial hesitation, Amy agrees to go with him, since it's obvious there might not be any other way to get help; she'll call the tow truck from the restaurant while Jeff waits with the car. In the meantime, Jeff locates the problem -- a loose wire -- and fixes it. With the car back in working order, he drives on to Belle's Diner to catch up with Amy so they can continue on their way... but Amy isn't there. The diner isn't exactly a bustling place, yet the bartender and customers claim they never saw either Amy or Red. When Jeff continues to question them, he gets only cold stares and furtive glances -- as though he were delusional, driven crazy by the heat and the long lonely highways. Jeff's growing anxiety is only made worse by his gnawing suspicion that they aren't telling him the truth. Getting back on the road, Jeff searches for Red's truck -- but when he finds it, Red who just hours before so charmingly offered his assistance, denies ever having seen Jeff or his wife. The police are of no help, as they view Amy's disappearance skeptically. They've seen many couples fight and split while making long distance car trips. Who's to say this is any different? With nowhere and no one to turn to, Jeff sets forth on his determined, increasingly desperate search for Amy -- who has vanished utterly into the immense, sun baked emptiness of the West...If only the car hadn't broken down in the middle of nowhere...

Truth or Consequences, N.M.


Rated: NONE
TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, N.M. is the gritty, romantic story of petty criminal Raymond Lebecke (Vincent Gallo) and the woman he loves more than anything in the world, Addy Monroe (Kim Dickens). After being released from jail, Raymond is determined to find enough money to take Addy away with him forever. But getting hold of the cash has dire consequences for the couple as they hook up with Ray's former prisonmate and wild man Curtis Freley (Keifer Sutherland) and his associate, the enigmatic Marcus Weans (Mykelti Williamson). When their simple plan for an easy theft goes awry and an undercover cop is shot, Raymond, Addy, Curtis and Marcus go on the lam, taking two yuppie hostages (Kevin Pollak and Grace Phillips) with them. Desperate to make their dream come true, Ray and Addy are willing to do just about anything to make it happen.
