《内德的步枪》是三部曲的最终章，前两部分别是《傻子亨利》(Henry Fool)和《国家密码》(Fay Grim)，为以另类眼光看美国社会的边缘提供了一个恰到好处的结尾。 在这部电影中，Henry（Thomas Jay Ryan 饰，《傻子亨利》片中角色）和Fay（Parker Posey 饰，《国家密码》片中角色）也出现了，但他们变成了一幅画像，慈爱地看着他们的儿子Ned，Ned今年十八岁，最近才刚从证人保护计划中释放。尽管基督教徒从他的养父-一个教堂牧师手中接过他抚养，但Ned还是设定了报仇的目标：杀死他的父亲，因为那个人毁了他母亲的生活。当这个严肃又端庄的年轻人开始他的复仇之旅，他很快就发现自己进入了典型的哈特利式的异端分子的团伙中……
NED RIFLE is the third and final chapter of Hal Hartley's tragicomic epic begun with HENRY FOOL (1997, TIFF) and continued with FAY GRIM (2007). At once a saga concerning the Grim family of Queens and how their lives are turned upside down by the arrival of the self-proclaimed genius Henry Fool, the trilogy is also an illustration of America's grappling with ideas, art, politics, and religion over the course of 20 years. In this swiftly paced and expansive conclusion, Henry and Fay's son Ned sets out to find and kill his father for destroying his mother's life. But his aims are frustrated by the troublesome, sexy and hilarious Susan, whose connection to Henry predates even his arrival in the lives of the Grim family.
