Oscar-winning superstars Gene Hackman ("Unforgiven," "The Firm") and Al Pacino ("Carlito's Way," "Scent of a Woman") star as two born losers -- one a gruff ex-con who dreams of owning his own carwash and the other, a clowning, likable ex-seaman. They team up on a cross-country hitchhiking trip and develop a unique bond of communication that teaches them both something about life, loving and caring.
