Some movies are note worthy not so much for their intrinsic qualities but rather for their place in cinematic history.
True Romance is such a film.
It represents one of the earliest writing efforts by Quentin Tarantino. As is his custom he goes by himself to the movies, in this case a triple feature Gung Fu feature. There, he meets Alabama, a pretty young woman that he instantly takes a liking to. After the movie they hang out together and soon they are having sex. He awakens to find her sitting all alone.
