Recently released from prison after serving an eight-year stretch for killing a mob boss ex-cop Hawk (Kristofferson) returns to his native home of Rain City and takes up residence in a room at the back of the caf'' owned and run by his former lover Wanda (Bujold). At the same time a beautiful waif-like young woman Georgia (Singer) her sociopathic boyfriend Coop (Carradine) and their new-born child also arrive in their trailer and make the caf'''s parking lot their temporary home. Desperately in need of money Georgia takes on a waitressing job at Wanda's place while... Coop slowly but surely is lured into a life of petty crime. Already a regular customer at the caf'' Hawk soon falls under Georgia's spell and sets out to seduce her during the lonely nights that Coop is not around. Meanwhile Coop's criminal activities have attracted the attention of gangland boss Hilly Blue (Divine) a ruthless crimelord whose method of dealing with freelance crooks operating on his turf extends to drowning them in their cars. When Coop's life is threatened by Hilly and his men Hawk finds himself in a position where he must decide to put his own life on line by helping him or risk losing the woman he most desires. Humorously and stylistically employing the classic film noir themes of crime responsibility loyalty and love Rudolph's film presents a refreshingly original take on the genre one that is brilliantly enhanced by composer Mark Isham's (In The Valley Of Elah; The Black Dahlia; Crash) superbly evocative score.
