This movie finally opens here in Dallas this weekend. I’m excited. This looks to be a great New York picture. It looks, feels, and sounds like old-school New York Woody in a way…and there’s nothing wrong with that. Of course it is Turturro’s picture and we are all grateful for that. He had a vision and he worked hard to bring that vision to life. He and his team did a great job. Hopefully Turturro will continue to write and direct well into the future. Bravo John!!!!
