I said in my last opinion that because this was my number one film, I would proceed to write an opinion on this film to make up for the lack of information in that op. If anybody has not seen this film then even if this review doesn't sell it to you, I would really recommend you to see it to give your own verdict.

Alabama Worley (nee Whitman):- Played by Patricia Arquette of the famous Arquette family, she is a callgirl, not a whore because there is a difference. Not a very experienced one I have to add, in fact a callgirl with only four days experience behind her. Her third assignment is to find a man named Clarence Worley who will be at the local theatre watching a movie because it is his birthday. She proceeds to fall in love with Clarence, as does he and they go forth and get married the very next day. Not very realistic I hear you say, but Christian and Patricia make it quite believeable.

Clifford Worley:- The father of Clarence played by Dennis Hopper. An ex policeman who is now a security guard, he has never seen Clarence for three years until now. Just like Val Kilmer, Hopper doesn't really get a very big part in the film although his style of acting is recognisable. He is witty, straight talking and has a very refrained attitude towards his son, partly due to the fact that he hasn't seen him for so long, but also due to the fact that Clarence always reminds him of his ex wife. The result comes over as a small part with a strong performance.

Dick Ritchie:- The best friend of Clarence played by Michael Rapaport. Dick is an aspiring actor and the first time we see him in the film is for an audition for a new series of T.J Hooker. Dick and Clarence go a long way back and when things go belly up for Clarence, Dick is who he turns to. Michael Rapaport is not a really well known actor as far as I am concerned but his last notable film that I saw was the Schwarzenegger film, The Sixth Day. This proves that he can get the big roles and the part he plays in this film, is played well.

Vincenzo Coccotti:- A Sicilian mafia leader played by the excellent Christopher Walken. Coccotti is an extremely violent character and I feel that the only man that could play him is indeed, Christopher Walken. Again, another small part but very well played. He is also involved in one of the highlights of the film in which he and Clifford Worley discuss the origins of Sicilians. This is very entertaining and culminates in a very bloody ending for Clifford. Another excellent piece of filmmaking which is more entertaining because of the fact that it is a 10 minute break in the film in which it bears no real connection to the plot.

One of the first turns the film takes, and the one that sets the course for the film is when Clarence tries to show how much he loves Alabama. In one of his bathroom scenes with Elvis Presley, he is advised to get rid of the pimp that ruled Alabama for four days, known as Drexl. This he thinks will seal his love and tells Alabama that he wants to go and see Drexl and get her belongings back. Of course in reality he is going to see Drexl in order to kill him. When he gets to the vice den he hands Drexl an envelope in which he claims he has put some pay off money. When Drexl opens the envelope and realises that there is nothing in it, things turn ugly. This may spoil it for you but Clarence kills Drexl and takes a bag from the den that he thinks contains Alabama's belongings. It hasn't but it does contain around $1 million worth of cocaine.

As I have mentioned above, make sure you look out for Samuel L. Jackson, the conversation between Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken and of course the hilarious drug taking antics of Brad Pitt.
