How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A lovably aimless slacker tumbles into a bizarre crime caper he never asked for, presided over by a mysterious cowboy narrator. It's a shaggy-dog odyssey through Los Angeles where the journey, full of strange detours and quotable dialogue, matters far more than any resolution.
