Review: "Every time I watch this movie (and rest assured, I've watched it a lot since sitting mesmerized in the theater in 1989), I find some new nuance in the tale. Check out the DVD special edition, with commentary by Gus Van Sant and Matt Dillon...it will give you special access to some of the setups for the later sequences, ones that made me do a double-take on my most recent viewing.
What a great film. William S. Burrough's predictions turned out to be so, so, SO right on about the 'Drug Hysteria'. Matt Dillon has never been better or more nuanced than he was in this film....he deserved some awards for it. I still maintain that one of Kelly Lynch's lines, "You won't F*** me and I always have to drive", is one of my favorite movie quotes."
