In 1990, Woody Harrelson starred in the movie Cool Blue, a romantic drama that also features Hank Azaria, Ely Pouget, and Paul Lussier. Harrelson plays Dustin, a struggling artist who moves from the Midwest to California with dreams of making it big. On his way to California, he meets the beautiful and mysterious Christian (Pouget) on the train, and they fall for each other almost immediately.

Once in California, Dustin realizes that making it as an artist is much harder than he anticipated. He gets a job as a delivery man, and his boss, Frank (Azaria), takes him under his wing. Frank is a charismatic, smooth-talking ladies' man, who also happens to be married. However, Frank's wife, Liz (Lussier), is aware of his infidelities and is more focused on her own career as a singer.

As Dustin tries to establish himself as an artist, he continues to cross paths with Christian. She's enigmatic and keeps her distance, but Dustin can't help but be drawn to her. He wants to know more about her, but she's not willing to open up. In the meantime, Frank tries to persuade Dustin to date Liz so that he can continue his affairs without suspicion.

The film takes a closer look at the lives of these four characters as they navigate their relationships and careers. Throughout the film, there's a sense of longing, dissatisfaction, and the search for something more. Dustin is searching for his big break as an artist, Liz is looking for success as a singer, Christian is running from her past, and Frank is searching for pleasure in the wrong places.

The movie's soundtrack is a big highlight, featuring music from artists such as Johnny Cash, Roseanne Cash, and Emmylou Harris. The music serves as a driving force that helps establish the tone and mood of the film.

Cool Blue is a slow-burning film that explores the themes of love, lust, and the pursuit of happiness. The pace may seem slow at first, but the film allows the characters to develop over time, allowing viewers to get a deeper understanding of their motivations and desires. The chemistry between the cast is undeniable, and each actor gives a solid performance, bringing the characters to life.

Overall, Cool Blue is a charming, thought-provoking movie that explores the complexities of love, relationships, and the search for something more. If you're a fan of romantic dramas, then this is definitely a movie that you'll want to check out.
