Okey dokey doggie daddy, here is your chance to reconnect with the darker corners of cinema’s little black book. Tony Scott’s dark comedy thriller (famously scripted by one Quentin Tarantino) sees comic store assistant Clarence (Christian Slater) fall in love with beautiful prostitute Alabama (Patricia Arquette). After getting married and accidentally stealing a fortune in cocaine (as you do) from her monstrous pimp (Gary Oldman), the pair hit the rocky road to possible oblivion, with hitmen and psycho drug dealers on their tail.

Stuffed with a host of great star cameos (Brad Pitt, Val Kilmer, Christopher Walken and Dennis Hopper to name a few) and as fresh and entertaining as ever, it’s an acid cocktail that still burns more than twenty years on. Stealing, cheating, killing. Who says romance is dead?
