Drama FilmDrama Film🎬"a loving and lovely sensibility" (New York Times)
🎭"Dafoe has rarely been so tender" (A/V Club)
✍️Written by Samy Burch of MAY DECEMBER
A forgotten downtown poet gets a second act when young admirers rediscover his work, and Willem Dafoe plays it with tenderness and quiet ache. Kent Jones's film is funny, poignant, and occasionally haunting: a love letter to New York and the dreams we put away.
