Better Than Ever (1997)
Walter and Hume, roommates in a veterans home, are complete opposites. Walter is a sarcastic wise mouth who loves to speak his mind. Hume is meticulous and quiet but loves to wind Walter up. Tired of being poked, prodded, and placated with pills by the nursing staff, the two escape. Determined to end their lives in quiet dignity, they load their weapons and hail a cab to a remote wooded area.
