Accidental Texan Movie
Accidental Texan Movie Trailer HD - Plot synopsis: Fresh-faced recent Harvard student Erwin (Rudy Pankow) flames out of his first professional acting job when he forgets to turn off his phone and triggers an explosive nightmare on set. His career and cell phone in tatters, he flees the New Orleans set, only to have his car break down deep in the heart of Texas oil country. Seeking refuge and some possible phone service in a local diner, he meets Faye (Carrie-Anne Moss), a kind waitress who takes pity on him and offers up the local phone book to find a mechanic. Without enough funds to fix his car, Erwin accepts an offer from Merle, a local oil driller (Thomas Haden Church) only to find out he too is nearly bankrupt and cannot pay his bills. With both men in desperate straits, Merle realizes their only hope may be Erwin's acting skills and a little help from Faye's shotgun.

00:17 [imitating gunshots]
00:18 Yeah, no, I got it.
00:20 OK, people, we got one take of this.
00:21 Let's not mess it up.
00:22 [beeping]
00:23 Oh!
00:24 [gunshots]
00:26 [glass shattering]

00:33 [screaming]
00:34 [glass shattering]
00:35 Not right now.
00:36 [music playing]
00:39 Have a seat.
00:40 Make yourself at home.
00:41 Is that your foreign car sitting out a little ways
00:44 out of town?
00:45 You got the Harvard sticker in the window?
00:47 Yeah, Borowsky, Irwin.
00:49 Could I get the Wi-Fi?
00:50 We don't have that.
00:51 Old school.
00:52 This is from 2015.
00:54 Things don't change too much around here.
00:56 We'll get you back on the road soon enough.
00:58 While you're waiting, maybe you could help me out.

01:04 A bunch of holes in the earth for oil, like a badass.
01:07 There's a million ways to get hurt on an oil rig.
01:09 Fall down, knock your teeth out, get blown up, electrocuted.
01:12 If a pipe falls down, it'll kill you.
01:15 I'm going to step back, all right?
01:17 You guys got it, though.
01:19 You know how much education I got?
01:21 Eighth grade, the day I dropped out,
01:24 my old dad threw me up on a rig.
01:26 That's all I know.
01:27 They're going to take everything I have,
01:28 and they're going to ruin me.
01:30 I need you to act like you are my Harvard-educated landman.
01:33 I know all the landmen around here.
01:35 I've never seen that jackalope in my life.
01:37 Check out his shoes.
01:38 All right, we're made up.
01:40 Let's start drilling.
01:41 They said everything's going to drill itself, right?
01:42 [music playing]
01:45 This is not where I belong.
01:46 This acting, this is always your dream?
01:48 Yeah.
01:51 We got to find a lease, drill it.
01:53 We got to make a strike in 30 days.
01:55 I think with your Harvard smarts,
01:57 you can help me solve this.
01:59 You two keep scheming, and I'll start
02:00 collecting tips in case I have to bail you out of jail.
02:03 [music playing]
02:06 You really are willing to risk everything.
02:11 Yes, I am.
02:12 He loves you.
02:13 You know that, right?
02:14 When I get too close, he always ends up drifting away.
02:19 There comes a time when one could
02:20 sure use a little help.
02:23 [music playing]

02:27 You're shooting the ring!
