James Murphy and James Canty throwing a beer can at some punks and calling them fags! If any of these names/situations ring your indie-cred alarms, then you ought to see this film—shot over 15 days in 1994—documenting the rise and fall of the Truckstops, a very fake band made up of very real musicians, as they scam their way around the country in beautiful black and white with an awesome mix tape of a soundtrack.
