movie review - Happy Texas
the journal of Michael Werneburg
twenty-eight years and a million words
Toronto, 1999.10.22
A funny story of two bad robbers who break out of prison and get mistaken for the gay couple visiting the tiny town of Happy, Texas, where they're expected to put on a beauty pageant for girls. It's actually considerably better than it sounds, with excellent writing and good performances by all (especially Macy, natch). I really enjoyed what they did with this.
Strongly recommended.
