True West

By Sam Shepard

Directed by Nick Hartwig

This is the story of two estranged brothers whose paths cross again at their mother’s home in the California desert. Austin is house sitting for his mother and working on a screenplay that has caught the interest of a Hollywood producer. Lee, his older brother, a clear loser and petty thief drops in unexpectedly. When the Hollywood producer visits Austin to talk about his screenplay, Lee pushes his way into the situation and is soon pitching his own idea for a trashy western. Ultimately Lee steals Austin’s big break and the sparks fly. Recommended for adult audiences.
