Plot
In the 1950s in rural Wisconsin, a trio of young friends, David, Tim and Joe, stage a prank murder in front of a local bank where a real life robbery, led by criminals and gay lovers, Leon and Florence, is going down.

Critical reception
Although it was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance Film Festival it lost to The Brothers McMullen.
Todd McCarthy of Variety did not care for the film:
"There's material here for a film, at most, half the length of Fall Time, a thoroughly pedestrian crime drama."[1]
Glenn Kenny of Entertainment Weekly wrote:
"Think that the idea of Mickey Rourke and Stephen Baldwin playing a pair of gay psychos sounds bad? You should only experience the reality."[2]
Kenny also dubbed the film as "pointless sadism and tiresome pseudoexistential philosophizing." adding, "Unless you’re really interested in hearing Rourke call Baldwin ”honey,” avoid Fall Time at all costs.[2]
