About this event
Former police officer Rick Bode is forced from the department after refusing to participate in the schemes of corrupt judge Norman. Reunited with his old partner Huck, Rick sets out to expose a criminal network involving blackmail, murder and a satanic cult. Along the way he finds time for romance, martial arts, country music, spiritual contemplation and the irresistible dance sensation known as the Shimmy Slide. Written, produced by and starring John De Hart, CHAMPAGNE AND BULLETS is an extraordinary vanity-project action epic whose ambition is matched only by its profound eccentricity. Its awkward dialogue, sudden tonal shifts and complete sincerity have made it a cult phenomenon, especially in its alternate incarnation as GETEVEN. Far more than a conventional bad-movie curiosity, this is personal cinema in its purest and most bewildering form.
