The movie is a bit of a Tarantino knock off, but it felt linear too me.
The girlfriend doesn't make much sense, to me, in the storyline, but you know, sex sells.
And this movie is a bit of a spoof.
That makes it easier to swallow.
I really wanted it to keep going.
Or give us an extended directors cut.
More Frog Backstory.
More Malkovich Backstory.
Or I could just rewatch the stupid thing.
I enjoyed the movie as you had figured Monet. Regardless of where the truth lies, this movie convinced me that it is a really bad idea for anyone to get into the business of selling illegal drugs. Clever, dry, southern dialogue throughout. Nice Southern soundtrack (they had everything jammed in there but Flirtin' With Disaster). A Malkovich prequel would be great as you basically suggested. One thing we know is that Bright/Malkovich took the "Always Obey My Orders" directive from Frog, was recruited into Frog's crew after the Donut Shop brothers, and then issued the same directive to Swin and Kyle when he brought them into the crew.
