L'Épreuve de force

A Vegas bus station at 3 a.m., neon dripping like cheap perfume. Two mismatched travelers board: a hungover cop in a rumpled uniform, a cigarette dangling unlit. The ride back becomes a high-speed gauntlet of neon, bullets, and betrayal. Eastwood’s gritty cautionary tale sours quicker than cheap whiskey.
