The King, Chiba, White Boy Day and Love…Bloody Love. True Romance is directed by Tony Scott and written by Quentin Tarantino. The cast includes Christian Slater, Patricia Arquette, Dennis Hopper, Brad Pitt, Val Kilmer, Gary Oldman, Michael Rapaport, Christopher Walken, James Gandolfini, Chris Penn, Tom Sizemore, Bronson Pinchot and Saul Rubinek. Hans Zimmer composed the music, and Jeffery L. Kimball was responsible for the cinematography. Clarence Worley (Slater), an employee at a comic book store, finds himself falling for Alabama Whitman (Arquette), a call girl, after she appears at a movie theater as a birthday gift. A hasty marriage quickly leads to trouble when they become entangled with dangerous drug dealers and members of the mob! It’s still debated how True Romance might have turned out if Tarantino had directed his own script, but ultimately it doesn't really matter. The film is an incredibly exciting combination of a couple on the run storyline with bursts of violent action. Director Scott did a fantastic job bringing Tarantino's screenplay to life, even making some changes to the story that worked well (and Tarantino agreed with). Some people question whether Scott was the right choice for the project because of his previous films like Top Gun, Beverly Hills Cop II and Days of Thunder, but his film immediately before True Romance was The Last Boy Scout, a thrilling action movie featuring clever dialogue written by Shane Black. This served as good preparation for True Romance, proving that Scott was a smart and well-suited choice. He also managed to get great performances from the large group of actors, particularly from Slater and Arquette. Almost everything works in True Romance; it’s consistently full of exciting action and suspenseful moments. It occasionally shocks with some violent scenes, cleverly drawing you into wanting to support a couple who will do anything for each other while also creating chaos wherever they go. There are plenty of unusual characters (Oldman and Pitt stand out), impressive set pieces, and dialogue that’s so sharp it could be used as a knife. From Clarence's conversations with his imaginary Elvis (Kilmer) mentor to an iconic scene where Walken’s mob boss verbally spars with Hopper as Clarence’s quiet father, the film is as rich in vocal performances as it is in visually striking imagery. And on top of all that, it’s a genuinely beautiful love story! It's definitely Tarantino’s fantasy brought to life, and if you were inclined to nitpick, perhaps more screen time could have been given to Sizemore and Penn’s police officers. Maybe the editing feels a little too fast-paced at times… But those are minor issues; the collaboration between Tarantino as writer and Scott as director delivers neo-noir thrills in abundance. It's actually a film that seems to improve with age. 9/10
