"Enlivens the classic premise of innocent-in-the-city by moving its archetypal characters in unexpected directions."—San Francisco Chronicle
An award-winning, exhilaratingly funny coming-of-age film, Cowboys & Angels tells the witty story about two Irish lads-one straight and one gay-from their youthful career ambitions to romance to entanglements with the law. Shane (Michael Legge, Angela's Ashes) is a shy civil servant striking out on his own. Vincent (Allen Leech) is a gay fashion design student looking for a roommate. When they cross paths, a friendship begins with Vincent helping pull Shane from his shell and sending him on the road to fabulousness. However, Shane becomes involved in drug running and falls for Vincent's best friend Gemma (the luminous Amy Shields).
