An American in Texas (2017)

As the curtain falls on the tumultuous year of 1990, small-town Texas pulsates with the rebellious beats of punk band SGW (Surgeon General's Warning). Lifelong friends, the band members are desperate to escape their stifling, monotonous hometown, a place dominated by the despair of dead-end jobs and the omnipresent shadows of oil fields. Amid a backdrop of 24-hour newscasts marketing Operation Desert Storm and promoting blind patriotism, the boys find solace in dropping acid, performing wild gigs, and orchestrating meticulous acts of vandalism. SGW views their band - their shared passion for music and rebellion - as a golden ticket away from the suffocating confines of their small town life. They dream of the bright lights and boundless opportunities of Los Angeles, plotting a daring escape fueled by their raw talent and shared desperation. However, as they inch closer to their dream, they must confront a chilling reality - the very bond that binds them, their music, could be the catalyst that tears them apart. Will they conquer their fears and make the leap, or will the pressures of their imminent success shatter their lifelong friendship? As the boys stand on the precipice of change, "An American in Texas" explores the exhilarating rush of youth, the bitter taste of disillusionment, and the complex dynamics of friendship against a vivid backdrop of punk rock and political uncertainty.

An American in Texas is a drama movie featuring Barry Corbin and directed by Anthony Pedone.
