Breathless

2012 · 91 min

A grisly, deadpan trailer-park farce that keeps escalating its body-disposal chaos with grim, darkly funny relish.

Tagline: Even a good woman has her breaking point.
Overview: Lorna is a strong-willed Texas woman who’s had enough of her untrustworthy husband Dale’s criminal acts and lack of husbandry. Fed up, she enlists the help of her old friend, Tiny, to help her figure out what to do with Dale after his latest double-cross involving the theft of $100,000 from a bank.
How it feels: Dark, absurd, cynical and tense. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Betrayal, crime, greed, deception
Content: Strong violence, gore and language. Mild sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
