Synopsis
"I was — to be frank — a spoiled, miserable, narcissistic, self-destructive and thoughtless young lout, and badly in need of a good ass-kicking."
From director Matt Johnson (BlackBerry, Nirvanna the Band, the Show, the Movie) comes this biopic on the life of the late Anthony Bourdain, the chef-turned-cultural icon whose voice changed how we saw food, travel, and the world.
In 1975, a 19-year-old Anthony Bourdain (Dominic Sessa, The Holdovers) travels to Provincetown, Cape Cod and stumbles into the chaotic world of a restaurant kitchen, setting off a summer that will shape the course of his life. The film also stars Antonio Banderas, Emilia Jones, and Leo Woodall (Tuner).
Screening at Luna Leederville, Luna on SX, and the Windsor from August 20.

Reviews
Performances across the board here are uniformly flawless.
An unconventional, moody, and memorable Anthony Bourdain biopic that captures the messy and uncertain moment when his life began to make sense.
A chef’s-kiss fusion of the ingredients at hand.
[Dominic Sessa] brings a sadness and sensitivity to the part that will keep you on side even when Bourdain’s at his worst.
