True West

Two brothers.

Austin, a screenwriter who’s about to land his
big break.

Lee, a small-time crook without a nickel to his name.
When Lee returns home from the Mojave Desert
full of tales of the Wild West, his brother can hardly
muster a hello. But when a big shot movie producer
prefers Lee’s experience to Austin’s imagination, a
battle for the heart of the American West begins.

A darkly funny story of sibling rivalry and Hollywood hypocrisy, set in the heat of the Californian suburbs.
