Un vendeur de voitures d'occasion qui croule sous les dettes engage deux escrocs à la petite semaine pour enlever sa propre femme et réclamer une rançon à son riche beau-père. Mais les choses tournent mal... Un film noir à l'humour grinçant bien dans le style des frères Coen. Le décor, la photographie et la musique contribuent à part égale à son ambiance oppressante. Il a été tourné en plein hiver, dans les plaines enneigées, désertes et monotones du Minnesota et du North Dakota. Traité à la limite de l'abstraction, le paysage est une métaphore de l'état mental des personnages.

From hard scrabble origins on the Plains of North Dakota, to longshoremen organizing on Manhattan’s West Side docks, to living the life of a Bohemian poet in Los Angeles and beyond, Thomas McGrath’s literary aspirations took him far from his humble beginnings. For over six decades, McGrath created poems based largely on the themes of love, work, and political justice. His love of the prairie and his early years on a working farm were central to his life. The virtues of the agrarian community plus the Catholic faith of his family, shaped his Old West character. He was a political progressive and at times a member of the Communist Party of America. In the 1950’s, he was brought before the House Un-American Activities Committee and blacklisted following his appearance. McGrath was the consummate non-conformist in his life and art. He refused to submit to the philosophy that politics and poetry must be kept separate. His epic work, Letter to an Imaginary Friend, is anchored by progressive politics, political and social theory, his love of family, his love of love, and, arguably, the greatest layering of language idioms in the history of American poetry.
