Halsy, having been barred from racing due to his on-track behavior, convinces Fauss to let him use his name in order to enter the next big race. Consistently belittled and taken advantage of by Halsy, Fauss s feelings of inferiority are compounded when the beautiful Rita (Lauren Hutton, American Gigolo) and Halsy meet. (official distributor synopsis)
Reviews (1)
Little Fauss and Big Halsy definitely hit me hard at times, in the most unexpected ways. You've got these two guys—one’s this super cool, tough dude, and the other’s a pimply, curly-haired opposite of him—and they set off on this wild road trip that’s packed with WTF moments. The family of the awkward introverted one? Pure gold. They’re brutally honest. There’s this one bit where the mom asks the dad what he wants to eat, like pancakes with whipped cream or something else, and he just goes, "Doesn't matter. It'll just go right through me tonight, anyway." :-D The whole movie is just... kind of nuts. At points, I found myself wondering why I was still watching, but at the same time, I couldn't stop because it was just so bizarre. I laughed a lot, and the Johnny Cash soundtrack was killer, so in the end, it wasn’t a bad way to spend 95 minutes—you just need to go into it with a huge sense of humor.
