Plot: Based on a gritty, semi-autobiographical novel by author Kim Wozencraft, this crime thriller was adapted for the screen by noir novelist Pete Dexter and marked the directorial debut of producer Lili Fini Zanuck. Jennifer Jason Leigh stars as Kristen Cates, a rookie police officer recruited to partner with Jim Raynor (Jason Patric), an undercover Texas cop trying to infiltrate the criminal ring of major drug dealer Will Gaines (Gregg Allman) in the 1970s. What Kristen isn't told is that, as part of his deep cover masquerade, Jim must take drugs in order to be convincing and, unsurprisingly, has become an addict. Although this dangerous practice is not acceptable police procedure, Jim and Kristen's zealous superiors Larry Dodd (Sam Elliott) and Donald Nettle (Tony Frank) are obsessed with taking Gaines down because he has corrupted the daughter of a prominent local citizen. Jim and Kristen, who fall in love and move in together, befriend a petty car thief, Walker (Max Perlich), who has ties to Gaines. Since they both become drug addicts, Jim and Kristen's case makes little progress, until they clean up and convince Walker to turn on Gaines. Their investigation becomes tainted, however, when they are pressured from above to manufacture false evidence against their target. The soundtrack for Rushcontained the hit song Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

Addiction takes one to really bad places!

This paints a really grim picture of how one could fall into the "hell hole" of addition. What starts as a job turns in to a way of life that will change them forever if they choose to stay in it. The characters seem very real - pathetic and beaten down. Would recommend this movie!

I first saw this movie late at night and missed the first 30 minutes. I couldn't wait for it to come on again, so I ordered it. The movie has an independent feel even though it's not. Anywho, it's a great watch and based on a true story for the most part.
