Synopsis

A promenade through New York and the life and career of actor Ben Gazzara, who actor-director Joe Rezwin met in 1977 on the set of John Cassavetes’ Opening Night. As they walk and talk their way through the city and Gazzara’s past, visiting key places and meeting important people in his life, Ben and Joe gradually get to know each other better. Their conversations about acting, art, fears and desires, life and death all culminate in the final Central Park sequence where Ben persuades Joe it is time to cut the cord, end the obsession with him and Cassavetes, and pursue his passion of filmmaking in his own individual way as Ben did his entire life. –Locarno Film Festival
