Film: Drugstore Cowboy (1989)

DVD: Enhanced 16x9
Drugstore Cowboy

"You just put a 30 day hex on us, that's what you did. Our luck just flew out the window for the next thirty days."

Review: This is a well-told tale of drug addicts who support their habit by stealing them from drug stores and hospitals. Matt Dillon is good as the superstitious, but crafty leader who decides to go clean after he escapes from one last robbery that goes really bad.

"This just isn't like him. Bob's like a rabbit, in and out and no nonsense. That goes for a lot more than a hospital pharmacy."

"Most people don't know how they're gonna feel from one moment to the next. But a dope fiend has a pretty good idea. All you gotta do is look at the labels on the little bottles."

4 out of 5 Stars
