This was a movie about a guy who decided to grow a moustache two weeks ago. And the moustache is not mature, and the haircut is not quite right, and the clothes are mismatched and unflattering. He’s a guy whose life has happened to him, and in a way [the drama] represents an opportunity for him to happen to life. At first, the film seems to be a psychological drama; by the end, it has turned into a much broader 80s-set stew of noir Americana.
