Rockets Redglare is the catch-all name of a brilliant actor, seasoned con artist, best friend and bad influence. In this documentary, many of his A-list buddies (along with actors Willem Dafoe, Matt Dillon and others) tell this unique man's story. Although he never held a day job, Rockets was well-connected; his friends included Steve Buscemi, Jean Michael Basquiat, Julian Schnabel, Jim Jarmusch, Gus Van Sant and Sid Vicious.
