It is an indie film that was made in 95 by a group of friends in
Texas.They had originally made a short about some wrongheaded yet lovable
crooks that James Brooks saw at Sundance and loved. They then expanded it
into a full length feature. The movie is the tale of three alienated young
adults trying to make something of themselves through a life of crime (sort
of). They aren't really hard hearted enough to be crooks, but they see this
as a way of acheiving something ( and monetary gain isn't really the issue
either). Maybe it's a movie about friendship and the lengths we will go to
to follow our friends, and then there's the love story..... Alright Will, I
give up with this synopsis stuff here's the link to the Sony website
http://www.spe.sony.com/movies/bottlerocket/ This should confuse you some
more I'm sure, but I'd rather have a huge multinational conglomerate
confusing you than having to do it myself. Once again, good luck.
