Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Rehmeier wrote the script in 2019 but shelved it until Weaving aggressively campaigned for the role after seeing 'Dinner in America.'
The film deliberately echoes 1970s 'lovers on the lam' cinema like 'Badlands' and 'The Sugarland Express,' but swaps the mythic Americana for Waffle House parking lots and predatory payday loans.
