Rubin & Ed
As soon as Ed saves Rubin's life, he's gonna kill him.
Directed by Trent Harris
Produced by Working Title Films
An offbeat buddy road movie that balances quirky humor and genuine affection between two misfits on an absurd quest through the desert.
Reclusive Rubin Farr teams up with vocal but unsuccessful multi-level salesman Ed Tuttle on a quest to bury Rubin's dead cat in the "perfect spot." Their trip takes them across Utah's desert where they have run-ins with Ed's ex-wife Rula and an elusive Andy Warhol critic.
