So listeners, for episode 11, we're taking an extra deep-dive into the career and controversies of Buffalo '66 director Vincent Gallo - his early start as a painter, dancer, the No Wave Scene in NY and films he has kept hidden from the public.
We also take a long look into his 1998 directorial debut Buffalo '66, which he also stars in as Billy Brown - a man who has just been released from prison. The catch? He's told his parents he has a wife. The Problem? He's on his way to visit them. The Solution? Well, to kidnap the young Layla (Christina Ricci), obviously, whom he spots dancing while he's on his way to a bathroom, who he needs to play his loving doting wife.
Buffalo '66 combines humour and drama in a story that is ultimately about redemption.
