oh my dear.  If you have never seen "Down by Law" you must go out and 
rent it forthwith!

Okay, picture this: Tom Waites is this gnarly DJ character...

and there's this tall skinny pimping guy...

and they are slimey, but they've both been FRAMED, and in jail they meet Bob.

Bob, he's just sweet and real... but it turns out he actually killed 
a man with... a cue ball or something... and they're all in prison 
together.

And Bob, he loves to read Robert Frost... but he calls him "Bob Frost."

and they escape, and they're out in the Louisiana swamps... wandering...
and it just goes on from there...

it's black and white, and it's beautiful.
