That stripper bar was next to the Ford plant I've never seen it. Is it based on any actual events or places in Buffalo? Doesn't it have a nod to Wide Right in the movie as well?

wppete Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 That was a wild, entertaining movie. Definitely worth a watch if you haven’t seen it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wacka Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Who was looking at her forehead? The whole movie was filmed in WNY. The prison he was let out of was the Psychiatric Center in Gowanda. The Denny's they went to was at Eggert , Sheridan and NF blvd in Amherst. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T&C Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Kind of a poor man's Coen brothers type of a movie... not horrible but not great either. A once a decade watch I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purple haze Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I don’t mind pathos in a film. He created a vivid world, had an interesting visual style, etc.. I thought Gallo did a good job with the film. The Brown Bunny on the other hand... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 (edited) Never saw it. Reading this thread I take it’s just another reminder of what it feels like to be kicked in the nuts being from the Buffalo area.

billsintaiwan Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Gallo was such a douche. Did bang the hottest and nicest chick from my high school during filming, so good for him, but otherwise a whiny brat. I don't think Buffalo is the greatest place in the world, but it has its charms and certainly builds character. But it is tough on people who need other people to say "wow, you're great!" and Gallo was certainly one of those people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoMAn Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 15 hours ago, Augie said: I had never heard of it until opening this, so I’m guess that’s a bonus for me! It’s an indie film, so if big production and special effects are your thing, skip it. A lot of it is portraying Buffalo as very bleak and depressing. It’s kind of accurate for how some parts were, and may still be. Some top notch actors. I loved it. Very quirky. But I like quirky. Not for everyone, but definitely check it out. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Day 10 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 (edited) His character in this is possibly one of my favorite characters of all time. So impatient and angry. So many one-liners and quirks that are spanning time Edited June 28, 2023 by May Day 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jokeman Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 The opening scene to me was wonderfully funny. Yet I don't want to spoil it for anyone who has yet to see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know all that much about Gallo but he was in that NFL Films video about the Bills called "A Town, A Team, A Dream" and my impressions of him is that he was kind of a loser/outcast type...so yeah how did he pull that off?

Gallo responded by calling Ebert a "fat pig with the physique of a slave trader". 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
