About The Linguini Incident
The Linguini Incident is a quirky romantic caper starring the legendary David Bowie (The Man Who Fell to Earth) and Rosanna Arquette (Pulp Fiction). The film also boasts an impressive cast, including:
- Academy Award® winner Marlee Matlin (Children of a Lesser God)
- Buck Henry (Heaven Can Wait)
- Eszter Balint (Stranger Than Paradise)
- Andre Gregory (Demolition Man)
- Viveca Lindfors (The Sure Thing)
- James Avery (The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air)

The story follows Lucy (Arquette), a chronically underpaid waitress, and Monte (Bowie), a mysterious, charming, and heavily indebted bartender. Lucy desperately needs cash, and Monte must marry someone—anyone—by the end of the week to settle his debts. Teaming up with Lucy’s lingerie-designing best friend, Viv (Balint), the trio hatches a plan to rob their ultra-hip New York City restaurant. However, as they soon discover, pulling off a heist is as unpredictable as falling in love.
