True Romance was based on a novel, and the ending is very different from the cinematic adaptation. The unforgettable scene was played by the late Denis Hopper and the legend Christopher Walken.
Clarence’s father who tells the Sicilian mobster about the true origins of the Sicilians is probably one of the best dialogues ever written. From this point onward a “Bonnie and Clyde” style chase develops, as the Sicilian mafia and the police chase the couple. Clarence, informs Alabama’s ’employer’ that they are newlyweds and during a violent incident, a suitcase full of drugs falls into his hands. Clarence ( Christian Slater), a young man working in a comic book store, spends a night with Alabama, an escort girl. True Romance is a movie like a Snatch where gangsters talk about nothing, and the dialogues are woven into rather harsh violent scenes. With sharpened writing by Quentin Tarantino, this epic film shares similar dark and sarcastic dialogue vibes.
