Patricia Arquette 80s Pop Art Comic Style

Design inspired by the David Lynch masterpiece Lost Highway

Gary Oldman is an Oscar winner and one of the most respected and revered actors ever. But to me, his best work is still playing the disgusting pimp Drexl Spivey in True Romance. Drexl is a central character to the story, though Oldman is essentially only in one scene ... a legendary scene so good it would have stolen the whole movie if not for the Walken/Hopper scene.

The True Romance design celebrates the classic Tony Scott adaptation of a Quentin Tarantino script. Starring Christian Slater as Clarence Worley and Patricia Arquette as Alabama Whitman, the classic crime comedy features a whole host of big names in supporting roles including Dennis Hopper, Val Kilmer, Gary Oldman, Christopher Walken, Brad Pitt and James Gandolfini.

True Romance is a film chock full of excellent individual scenes featuring legendary actors in small roles, and many (myself included) have praised these roles and scenes as "making" the film. But at the heart of this ultra-violent and bitingly funny and smart film is a love story. It would be easy for all of the powerful scenes and huge cameos to overshadow the leads, Alabama and Clarence Worley, but Patricia Arquette and Christian Slater don't let that happen; they have no problem carrying the main story, and somehow make several ridiculous premises believable. The genuine sweetness and love between them is ultimately the most satisfying element of the film, and the real reason we keep coming back to watch.

If you're here checking out this design, chances are good you understand; I don't need to explain to you the glory of True Romance. So many giants of cinema are in this film. Most are one- or two-scene performances, but many would say they make the movie. The best of them - Christopher Walken, Gary Oldman, Dennis Hopper, and James Gandolfini - blew me away to the point that I felt they deserved the full 4-tone shaded Plaid treatment, despite the minuscule screen time. Also available as a Ltd. Ed. fine art print @ www.PlaidDesign.co/TrueRomance, each of the elements of this design are their own separate art pieces, so putting it all together was a task that took weeks to complete. Hope you dig it!

If you love True Romance as much as I do, it's almost a guarantee that Christopher Walken's performance as mobster big boss Don Vincenzo is a big part of the reason why. Walken has made a career of playing small roles that steal movies, and this is no exception; in fact, it could be the best of the bunch. But you already know that, so honor the man by putting him on your wall!

Dennis Hopper as Clifford Worley is in arguably the best scene in True Romance, a movie with countless stellar scenes. But he's not just in the scene - he's a huge part of the reason it's the best scene. It's not easy to play off of Christopher Walken as a major mob boss, but Hopper more than holds his own, unsurprisingly. As I often do, I paused the film and took my own makeshift stills to work from. I carefully chose a pose in which Clifford is smiling, as he gets the last laugh by insulting Don Vincenzo to his core, something he knows no one gets away with alive. It's a scene that's intense, chilling, and laugh-out-loud funny all at the same time - a difficult feat to pull off.
