Description:

A comedy about love and marriage and hockey in Alberta's outback. Dirk and his buddies, Billy and Jim, discuss the hockey game they watched on television the night before. On their way home from work, they analyze each goal and relive every play. Dirk interrupts to ask Jim to drive back a few miles so he can read a sign they have just hurtled past. Jim drives down the country road, seeing a yard full of old cars, abandoned except for one that is being fixed as they pull up. The mechanic, a good-looking woman in her early 20s, is Charlene, proud owner of Tresses and Tangles Hair Design salon and auto body shop. Dirk asks Charlene to cut his hair. He returns a week later for more hair care tips. He has a black eye and his arm in a cast, after getting into a fight with a guy who teased him about his hair cut. Dirk asks Charlene to marry him. She finds that after their honeymoon he is still having trouble adjusting to married life. <30mn>
