It's a quirky lesbian romantic comedy set in 1999 on the road between Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and Tallahassee, Florida. The film opens with a violent robbery and murder related to a briefcase. Then we meet Jamie (Margaret Qualley), Sukie (Beanie Feldstein), and Marian (Geraldine Viswanathan). They are all quite different lesbians. Jamie, a Texan, is outgoing and unfaithful. Sukie is a police officer who throws Jamie out for being unfaithful. Marian is uptight and inexperienced and likes to read Henry James.
Jamie talks Marian into getting a drive-away car at Curlie's (Bill Camp) and traveling to Tallahassee. She hopes to loosen Marian up en route. However, the car they drive has a secret hidden in the trunk that causes three hoods to pursue them. The hoods are the talkative Arliss (Joey Slotnick), the hit first, talk later Flint (C. J. Wilson), and their boss, The Chief (Colman Domingo).
The movie follows all their experiences in their journey to Florida, including the final confrontation with an important politician (Matt Damon).
This 86-minute film is hilarious in the Coen style. I presume it is R-rated for its language, not so much for its sex, though there is some. Qualley and Viswanathan are excellent as leads. Slotnick and Wilson are a riot. It's quickly paced and doesn't take itself seriously. If you like Coen movies and are OK with the subject matter, you should enjoy this movie.
