Poplar Film Club

We show fab flicks in fun locations. This time, it's Gus Van Sant's 1989 film 'Drugstore Cowboy'. Where? Well in a pharmacy of course!

Come join us for this film experience out of the ordinary. Drugstore Cowboy is an American crime drama based on an autobiographical novel by James Fogle, starring Matt Dillon, Kelly Lynch, Heather Graham and William S. Burroughs. It has been acknowledged as Van Sant's breakthrough film. The story follows Bob Hughes (Matt Dillon) and his crew of drug addicts as they travel across the U.S. Pacific Northwest in 1971, supporting their habit by robbing pharmacies and hospitals. After a tragedy strikes the group, Bob decides to try to "go straight", but finds that there is more to extricating himself from the drug user's lifestyle than just giving up drugs.
