TRUE ROMANCE (Motion Picture Soundtrack) (1993)

True Romance (film)1993

True Romance is a American romantic crime film directed by Tony Scott and written by Quentin Tarantino. The film was released on September 10, 1993.

It features an ensemble cast led by Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette, with Dennis Hopper, Val Kilmer, Gary Oldman, Brad Pitt, and Christopher Walken in supporting roles. Slater and Arquette portray newlyweds on the run from the Mafia after stealing a shipment of drugs.

True Romance began life as an early script by Tarantino; he sold the screenplay in order to finance his debut feature film, Reservoir Dogs (1992).

It is regarded by proponents as a cross-section of writer Tarantino and director Scott‘s respective trademarks, including a Southern California setting, pop cultural references, and stylized violence punctuated by slow motion.

Though initially a box-office failure, the film’s positive reviews, with critics praising the dialogue, characters, and off-beat style, earned it a cult following. It has come to be considered one of Scott‘s best films and one of the best American films of the 1990s.

True Romance (Soundtrack album by various artists) was released on September 7, 1993 by Morgan Creek and was produced by Hans Zimmer.
