Stalled in his company's pecking order, ad man David Howard (Albert Brooks) failed to land the Senior VP slot he wanted. He quits, convinces wife Linda (Julie Hagerty) to do the same, sells their house and stocks and buys a Winnebago to roam the USA. Though they feel they're Easy Riders, they're actually Born to Be Mild. With their $145,000 nest egg tucked reassuringly within reach, they make their first stop: Las Vegas.
Synopsis: Offbeat, satiric, often slow-paced comedy chronicles naive yuppie couple's misadventures on the road to discover America. Perfect for fans of non-mainstream fare who enjoy dark humor and heavy irony.
