Our take
In 1994, the great character actor Tom Noonan took the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance for his remarkable directorial debut. Then the film all but vanished. A razor sharp, brilliantly funny portrait of urban loneliness, this 4K restoration resurrects one of the best independent films of its decade.
