ABOUT THE FILM

Billy Regis (Chris Mulkey), a serial philanderer with an epically foul mouth, is less than delighted to hear that his downriver girlfriend Patti Rocks (Karen Landry) is pregnant with his child. To complicate matters, Billy has neglected to inform Patti about his wife and kids in Minneapolis. A frantic Billy persuades his straitlaced best friend, Eddie Hassit (John Jenkins), to come with him on a debauched overnight road trip to find Patti, admit his sins, and persuade her to have an abortion.

Patti Rocks was filmed over two weeks in March 1987 in and around the Twin Cities. The film screened at the 1988 Sundance Film Festival where it competed for the Grand Jury Prize, and was nominated for five Independent Spirit Awards, including Best Director for David Burton Morris and Best Male Lead for Chris Mulkey.
