Nice little exercise in silent noir with a touch of laconic irony. Decent song as well by the Leningrad Cowboys.

A guy who looks an awful lot like Curtis (Booger) Armstrong breaks out of jail, checks into a seedy hotel, and so forth. Nothing that great, but it's a nice noir stylization and the song is quite nice.
