Steve Buscemi's directorial debut is an acclaimed, often-comic examination of an unemployed barfly auto mechanic (Buscemi) and his pathetic non-existence. After being fired from his job, this Long Island loser spends his days and nights in the titular watering hole (when he's not out driving an ice-cream truck), not realizing that talking about life isn't the same as living it. Buscemi's film features an all-star supporting cast that includes Seymour Cassel, Anthony LaPaglia, Debi Mazar, and Samuel Jackson.
