Was doing a little channel surfing on Saturday and caught this one by Steve Buscemi. I hadn't seen this movie in a long time and found it to be much better than I recalled. Not much happens, in terms of plot, but there are a tons of interesting characters and the film moves right along. Buscemi does a great job of playing a character who is, for lack of a better descritption, a likeable loser. I could not believe how many actors I recognized in this movie. I guess a lot of these guys were indie actors, or pretty small time, at the time of Trees Lounge. Quite a strong cast..... Buscemi, Debi Mazur, Anthony LaPaglia, Daniel (?) Baldwin, Michael Imperioli, Chloe Sevigny, Larry Gilliard, Sam Jackson, John Ventimiglia etc...

You notice the movie begins and ends with the same shot? - late 16:44:02 07/31/06 (2)
Hi,
at the beginning you are looking at a drink who life has passed by.
At the end, life has passed the main character by, and he is sitting in
the exact same seat.... waiting to die.
I hate that movie.

  Actually I missed the first couple of minutes. I thought the movie was just ok when I first saw it about 10 years ago. But this time around I thought it was really quite good.
  - 1/2 an attempt at glorifying a bunch of losers; also hated it... (nt) - grinagog 00:22:03 08/01/06 (0)
