Grand Theft Parsons (2004)

In the realm of rock and roll, where stories are woven from legends and myths, the tale of Gram Parsons stands apart. A comet in his time, Parsons was a bitter genius of staggering talent, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Elvis and the Rolling Stones, only to be extinguished prematurely in 1973, felled by a lethal cocktail of morphine and tequila. Yet, it's in his death that an extraordinary tale unfolds; a tale so remarkable that it freights the weight of folklore, straddling the realms of friendship, honour, and thrill-fueled adventure. Grand Theft Parsons is not a simple tale of burying the dead. It's a tale of a promise, a pact between two men, a hearse carrying the lifeless body of a rock star, and a daring pursuit unlike any other. Armed with sheer determination, five gallons of petrol, and the spirit of a fallen star, they embark on a journey that would be dismissed as a figment of wild imagination if it weren't so undeniably true. This film is a compelling portrayal of one of the most audacious escapades in modern history, a tribute to the defiance of convention and a testament to the power of rock and roll.
