Slacker (1991)

Directed by Richard Linklater

Drama | Comedy

Most recently watched by sleestakk

Overview

Austin, Texas, is an Eden for the young and unambitious, from the enthusiastically eccentric to the dangerously apathetic. Here, the nobly lazy can eschew responsibility in favor of nursing their esoteric obsessions. The locals include a backseat philosopher who passionately expounds on his dream theories to a seemingly comatose cabbie, a young woman who tries to hawk Madonna’s Pap test to anyone who will listen and a kindly old anarchist looking for recruits.

Rated R | Length 97 minutes

Viewing Notes

FF Day 27: Friends Favorite #55: Slacker courtesy of RJ. Was putting this one off the longest since I’m not a big Linklater fan. And of course, wasn’t crazy about this film. Probably my least favorite of this project.
