Ironweed (1987)
Halloween, 1938. Francis Phelan en Helen Archer zijn twee alcoholverslaafde, hopeloze figuren, die door de gure straten van Albany, New York trekken. Francis zonk diep na een dramatische gebeurtenis uit zijn verleden, waarvoor hij zichzelf nooit meer kan vergeven. Helen was ooit een populaire zangeres, maar slijt nu haar dagen als zwerver. Samen proberen ze te overleven in de koude, ongastvrije stad. Zullen ze vrede kunnen sluiten met hun verleden? Kunnen ze afstand nemen van de dood die overal op de loer ligt?
