The movie, set to release on October 30th, features Turturro in an acclaimed role that could earn him an Oscar nomination. Writer-director Noah Segan found Turturro's portrayal of Harry, a loyal and honest man caring for a disabled wife, compelling. Turturro acknowledges the film's nostalgic tone for the old New York, despite the city's changes. He shares a bond with fellow cast members Giancarlo Esposito and Steve Buscemi, adding depth to the story.",
