Movie Description
Video director Tamra Davis makes her feature-length debut with this crime drama. Anita (Drew Barrymore), abandoned by her mother and living with her mother's alcoholic, rapist ex-boyfriend, fulfills her geography class assignment by finding her pen-pal Howard (James LeGros), not in Japan or Brazil, but in the Chino, California prison yard. As their letter writing blossoms, so does their love, and the time for his parole is shortly due. They make plans to meet in person; when they do, she finds him a job, they draw closer physically and psychologically, and decide to cement their union by embarking on a crime spree.

Industry Reviews
"...[Barrymore is] a dynamite presence and a credible actress....In GUNCRAZY, Davis delivers pow entertainment with a twist..."
Travers
"...Very accomplished, cruelly entertaining....[Barrymore is] enchanting to watch, both angelic and monstrous..."
Canby
"...A terrific film noir....Consistently sharp and observant....Davis has a gift for breathing quirky new life into an old genre and not overstating her American themes. She also makes wonderful use of her settings and gets first-rate performances from her cast..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Lloyd Sachs (02/12/1993)
