bill paxton gives a career-topping performance as bokky, a beguiling con-artist whose skill with a scam is legendary among the travellers - modern-day gypsies who make a good living swindling unsuspecting victims throughout the rural south. but bokky's solo routine is interrupted by the arrival of pat, a young drifter from "the outsidee" who has returned to claim his birthright as a clan member. taking pat under his wing, bokky and his eager new accomplice carve a path of riotous larceny and trouble-bound romance across the region, until bokky meets up with jean, the one woman who might have what it takes to tame his wild ways. but when both men fall under the spell of the outlaw gypsy double d, bokky and pat are caught up in a brilliant-but-deadly new scam that will put their loyalities - and their lives - to the ultimate test.
