2013 · Movie · R · 94 min · ★ 6.1 · 78% critics
In the summer of 1988, two highway workers are sent to repaint lines on a remote Texas road after wildfires, far from their usual lives. As days of isolation drag on, clashing personalities, uneasy encounters, and thoughts of the relationships they left behind turn a routine job into a strange, sometimes funny test of patience and perspective.

About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like quiet, character-focused indie comedies with odd detours and a lot of talk, similar to The One I Love or Cyrus; Not for you if you need fast plots or big laughs.
Pros: strong two-person dynamic; haunting, beautiful setting; offbeat humor | Cons: very slow pace; thin, aimless story; crude, grating dialogue
