With an introduction from Vidiots Founding Member Paul Scheer – actor, comedian, host of the film podcasts Unspooled, How Did This Get Made?, and author of the new book Joyful Recollections of Trauma.
Like a paranoid play date with three iconic friends – Elaine May, Peter Falk, and John Cassavetes make this offbeat gangster flick a fresh and entertaining meditation on friendship, toxic masculinity, and self-preservation. In Philadelphia, Cassavetes plays a slithering small-time bookie in hiding from the mob who begs a childhood friend (Peter Falk) to help him evade the hit-man (Ned Beatty) who’s hot on his trail. The camaraderie between Falk and Cassavetes is as evident as their spontaneous delivery, offering an alternative look at their decades-long friendship.
