A WEEKEND WASTED IS NEVER A WASTED WEEKEND.
In the wake of Pulp Fiction, Hollywood was quick to embrace a wave of smart, hyperkinetic crime comedies - and few captured the energy of the era better than Swingers director Doug Liman's Go. Written by future Big Fish screenwriter John August, this frenetic cult favorite channels late-90s youth culture into a wild, interconnected ride of drugs, raves and disastrous decisions over one chaotic Christmas weekend.
Desperate for rent money, supermarket clerk Ronna (Sarah Polley, Dawn of the Dead) agrees to broker a drug deal that quickly spirals out of control. Elsewhere, two soap opera actors (Jay Mohr and Scott Wolf) become entangled with an unnervingly friendly narcotics detective (William Fichtner), while a Vegas road trip involving Ronna's coworker Simon (Desmond Askew) erupts into sex, violence and utter mayhem. As the stories collide, every bad choice pushes the night closer to catastrophe.
Stylish, hilarious and relentlessly energetic, Go launched the careers of a plethora of stars, including Timothy Olyphant and Katie Holmes, while cementing Liman as one of the defining cinematic voices of the era - a razorsharp cult classic and an alternative Christmas movie like no other.
