“The most accurate portrait of the daily saloon drinker I have ever seen.” —Roger Ebert “Bracing, bleak and funny.” —The Washington Post “A beautifully low-key, disarmingly perceptive blue-collar character study, reminiscent of vintage Cassavetes in its sociological and emotional authenticity.” —Time Out Rediscover Steve Buscemi’s directorial debut, TREES LOUNGE, a gem of ’90s American independent cinema, now restored in 4K. A Long Island loser (Buscemi) keeps losing: fired from his job, watching his ex-boss (Anthony LaPaglia) date his ex-girlfriend (Elizabeth Bracco), and taking a dead-end gig as the local ice cream man. Thank god for booze and Debbie (Chloë Sevigny) — too bad she’s only seventeen. Featuring a stellar cast including Seymour Cassel, Michael Imperioli, Samuel L. Jackson, Carol Kane, Debi Mazar, and more.
