**Storyline:**
*U Turn* is a 1997 American neo-noir crime thriller directed by Oliver Stone and featuring a star-studded cast including Sean Penn, Jennifer Lopez, Billy Bob Thornton, Jon Voight, Powers Boothe, Joaquin Phoenix, Claire Danes, and Nick Nolte. The film is based on John Ridley’s novel *Stray Dogs*, with Ridley also penning the screenplay.
The story follows Bobby Cooper, a drifter deeply indebted to a ruthless gangster, whose car breaks down in the small town of Superior, Arizona. Stranded and penniless, Bobby encounters Jake and Grace McKenna, a father and daughter who are also a married couple. Both separately offer Bobby money to kill the other.
Desperate and fearful, Bobby agrees to kill Jake with the promise of starting a new life with Grace and escaping with Jake’s fortune. However, their plan quickly spirals into chaos. After carrying out the murder and fleeing with $200,000, they are confronted by the local sheriff, who has been having an affair with Grace. Grace kills the sheriff, and as they attempt to dispose of the bodies, she pushes Bobby off a cliff, gravely injuring him.
In a brutal struggle, Bobby manages to kill Grace, but not before she shoots him in the stomach. Severely wounded, Bobby struggles to climb back up the cliff, only to find his car’s radiator hose has burst, leaving him stranded in the scorching heat, bleeding and dying.
**Production Details:**
Filmed between November 1996 and January 1997, *U Turn* was shot on location in Superior, Arizona, as well as other areas of Arizona and California, including the Coachella Valley. To emphasize the harsh and hostile environment, the movie was entirely filmed on reversal stock, 5239.
Joaquin Phoenix, who played Toby N. Tucker, drew inspiration from small-town culture for his character’s unique haircut—shaving “TNT” (the character’s initials) on the back of his head. Phoenix explained that this was meant to reflect how small-town fads often linger long after they’ve faded elsewhere, adding a layer of authenticity to his role.
