Full reviewPortland, Oregon, 1971. Bob Hughes is the charismatic leader of a peculiar quartet, formed by his wife, Dianne, and another couple, Rick and Nadine, who skilfully steal from drugstores and hospital medicine cabinets in order to appease their insatiable need for drugs. But neither fun nor luck last forever. Directed by Gus Van Sant (Good Will Hunting), and starring Matt Dillon (There's Something About Mary) and Kelly Lynch (Road House).
