Grand Theft Parsons is a 2003 English-language Adventure Comedy movie written by Jeremy Drysdale and directed by David Caffrey and produced by Frank Mannion. There are times when it's right and proper to simply bury the dead. This is not one of those times.. Gram Parsons was one of the most influential musicians of his time; a bitter, brilliant, genius who knew Elvis, tripped with the Stones and fatally overdosed on morphine and tequila in 1973. And from his dying came a story. A story from deep within folklore; a story of friendship, honour and adventure; a story so extraordinary that if it didn't really happen, no one would believe it. Two men, a hearse, a dead rock star, five gallons of petrol, and a promise. And the most extraordinary chase of modern times. Written by Anonymous. Grand theft parsons stars Johnny Knoxville in the title role along with an ensemble cast including Michael Shannon, Christina Applegate, Jamie Mcshane, Danielle Sapia, Gabriel Macht and Robert Alan Beuth. The music was composed by Richard G Mitchell. Cinematography was done by Robert Hayes and editing by Mary Finlay and Alan Roberts. The movie has a running time of 88 min. It was released on 19th March 2004. The film made a box office gross of $0 million. Distribution rights for the movie were acquired by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
