The Go-Getters

The Go-Getters shocks and titillates as Lacie, an unlucky prostitute, hooks up with Owen, a wine-guzzling loser. No scheme is too sleazy, and no amount of cash too paltry to discourage them from pursuing one crazy con after another just to afford $98 bus tickets out of town. Owen’s brother tries to help while managing his dark, dismal, and derelict bar. An unsavory bunch of saloon regulars add to the hilarity. Will Owen and Lacie end up in jail, or in each other’s arms?
