2023 movie #10. 1973. She's a 15-yo cheerleader from small town USA (Spacek), he's a 25-yo loser (Sheen). They fall in love and go on a cross-country murder trip, both quite detached from reality. Based on a true story from 1958. Listed in the 1001 Movies to See Before You Die. ( )

A guy takes his 15-year-old girlfriend along for some murders.

2.5/4 (Okay).

For a movie that can be described as quiet and emotionally distant, it's pretty good. Interesting, but not compelling. I'm more than a little distracted by the fact that Malick has clearly never been to any of the states where the movie is set, despite geography and landscape being a key focus of about half the movie.
