Since he was a child, Bart Tare has always loved guns. After leaving the army, his friends take him to a carnival, where he meets the perfect girl; Annie, a sharp-shooting sideshow performer who loves guns as much as he. The 2 run off and marry, but Annie isn't happy with their financial situation, so at her behest the couple begins a cross-country string of daring robberies. Never one to use guns for killing, Bart's dragged down into oblivion by the greedy and violent nature of the woman he loves.

apparently shot in Montrose, CA where I worked back in 90s. Interesting to see what that area looked like back then. - @Thursday, April 26, 2018 2:58 AM

Love the Whole film...but the heist scene is avant-garde in film technique. Love the use of Real Locations rather than studio / backlot streets. It has such a "Right now" quality ! - @Friday, March 9, 2018 5:02 PM

Great scene, reminiscent of a Steadicam master shot. The street view out the window is classic. Gutsy call on the part of the DP and director. - @Sunday, January 7, 2018 2:46 AM

Unbelievable scene in a converted car. Two takes and this was the first. All improvised the only other actor was the cop. As they drove away bystanders shouted 'there's been a robbery'. Her look back involves us in the heist. - @Monday, November 27, 2017 7:44 PM

Whenever I see this scene, I'm reminded of my pretentious film studies classes. Had to hear how guns are phallic symbols, as the policemen gets to handle her gun, but she can't handle his. Maybe it's because he's a real policeman and he thought her gun was a prop! And this whole innovative way to do the scene in one take was dispelled because of the actors real life reactions to their surroundings. That's when I swore off watching films on an academic level. - @Saturday, November 12, 2016 1:59 AM
