What happens

Drive-Away Dolls (alternately titled onscreen as Henry James' Drive-Away Dykes) is a 2024 crime comedy road film directed by Ethan Coen from a screenplay he co-wrote with his wife Tricia Cooke, who was also the film's editor and uncredited co-director. The two produced the film with Robert Graf and Working Title's Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner. Set in 1999, the film stars Margaret Qualley and Geraldine Viswanathan as two lesbian best friends on a road trip through the Eastern United States, who become involved in a criminal scheme along the way. The film co-stars Beanie Feldstein, Colman Domingo, Pedro Pascal, Bill Camp and Matt Damon. It is Coen's first narrative feature without his brother Joel; Ethan Coen had previously directed the 2022 archival documentary Jerry Lee Lewis: Trouble in Mind. Drive-Away Dolls was released in Australia on February 22, 2024, and in the United States by Focus Features the following day. It received mixed reviews from critics. The film is the first installment in Coen and Cooke's planned "lesbian B-movie trilogy," and was followed in 2025 by Honey Don't!, also starring Qualley. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
