A new film Tony brings Anthony Bourdain’s transformative summer of 1975 to life, as a young dishwasher in Provincetown discovers his culinary destiny — but with twists: the romance, mentorship, and even the fiery restaurant drama are creatively reimagined from his memoir. Dominic Sessa stars as the restless teen, while Antonio Banderas embodies a fictionalized version of Bourdain’s real-life mentor, “Bigfoot.” Though the movie captures the raw energy and awakening of a future legend, it takes liberties with facts — from Nancy’s role to the fire and scam scenes — all to craft an electrifying origin story that shaped the man behind Kitchen Confidential.
