IMDb profile |
Rolling Kansas is a 2003 independent film directed and co-written by Oscar-nominated actor Thomas Haden Church. Rolling Kansas is a movie about five men (A T-Shirt Salesman, his two brothers, a large narcoleptic nursing student, and a dim-witted gas station attendant) who embark on a journey to find a government weed field that was discovered on a map three of the young men's parents left for them (known as the Hippies Murphy). On the way, they encounter cops, crazy geese, strippers, and a crazy old man played by Rip Torn.
Filmed in Lockhart, TX

[edit] Trivia
- The map route suggests that the characters' hometown "somewhere in Texas" is Denton (though that city was not used as a shooting location). Director/co-writer Church attended college there, at North Texas State University.
