One False Move
Explosive thriller starring Bill Paxton as a small-town Sheriff, out to bust a gang of LA drug dealers… until he learns his ex-girlfriend is one of them.
Director: Carl Franklin
Overview
Ruthless drug dealers Ray Malcolm (Billy Bob Thornton) and Pluto (Michael Beach) commit a brutal mass murder in LA and are forced to leave the state. One of their accomplices, Fantasia (Cynda Williams), begs to go home to Arkansas where she unwittingly leads them into the path of law enforcers, including two cynical L.A. cops and one eager, small-town sheriff (Bill Paxton). Sheriff Dale "Hurricane" Dixon has waited all his life for a major bust, and he's ready to meet these big city killers with his own brand of small-town justice. But when Fantasia arrives ahead of the gunmen, she brings with her a shattering secret from Hurricane's own past. Subtly tackling sexism and racism along the way, former actor Carl Franklin pulls off a superb, explosive directorial debut.
