Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Bob Rafelson's final film—he directed 'Five Easy Pieces' and basically invented 1970s American cinema, then ended his career with this forgotten 2002 curio. The range!
The 'based on a true story' tag comes from a real 1980s bank robbery, but Rafelson took such liberties that the actual events are basically unrecognizable. Hollywood gonna Hollywood.
