STEALING. CHEATING. KILLING. WHO SAYS ROMANCE IS DEAD?
In 1993, action movie supremo Tony Scott teamed up with a hot new screenwriter named Quentin Tarantino to bring True Romance to the screen, one of the most beloved and widely-quoted films of the decade.
Elvis-worshipping comic book store employee Clarence Worley (Christian Slater) is minding his own business at a Sonny Chiba triple bill when Alabama Whitman (Patricia Arquette) walks into his life - and from then on, the two are inseparable. Within 24 hours, they're married and on the run after Clarence is forced to kill Alabama's possessive, psychopathic pimp. Driving a Cadillac across the country from Detroit to Hollywood, the newlyweds plan to sell off a suitcase full of stolen drugs to fund a new life for themselves... but little do they suspect that the cops and the Mafia are closing in on them. Will they escape and make their dream of a happy ending come true?
Breathtaking action set pieces and unforgettably snappy dialogue combine with a murderers' row of sensational performances from a stunning ensemble cast in Scott and Tarantino's blood-soaked, bullet-riddled valentine, finally restored in dazzling 4K with hours of brilliant bonus features.

True Romance, brilliant fairy tale…
An early script from Quentin Tarantino (slightly adapted by Tony Scott) into an absolutely superb movie. Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette as the naively head-over-heels couple lead an amazing cast through a tightly plotted love story - watch out for the epic confrontation between Sicilian drug lord Christopher Walken and retired cop Dennis Hopper… Also noteworthy are amazing performances from Gary Oldman as an utterly evil pimp/drug gangster and a wonderful plot twist at the end…
