Director and co-writer Matt Johnson's Anthony Bourdain biopic TONY (2:04) wisely focuses on one short period of Bourdain's life: The summer Tony (Dominic Sessa) went to Provincetown, Mass., and worked in a kitchen while trying to woo his high school classmate Nancy (Emilia Jones). This movie isn't afraid to show you what a jerk Bourdain could be, how aimless he was, and how he made wrong decision after wrong decision. With an excellent central performance from Sessa and superior supporting work from Antonio Banderas as the chef/owner of the restaurant where Tony works, and Leo Woodall as a crude colleague, TONY is terrific, and we had a good conversation about it. Over on Patreon, we talk about the 1986 film CROSSROADS, starring Ralph Macchio and Joe Seneca.
