CITY
BY THE SEA
Vincent and son Joey have been painfully estranged

of his past. -Review by David Bruce |

| SYNOPSIS
When
you're searching for a killer...
the last suspect you want to see is your son. |
Inspired
by the 1997 Esquire article Mark of a Murderer, written by Pulitzer-Prize
winning journalist Mike McAlary, City by the Sea tells the gripping
story of a dedicated police officer who discovers that the chief suspect
in his current murder investigation is his own son.
New York City homicide detective Vincent
LaMarca (ROBERT De NIRO) has forged a long and distinguished career
in law enforcement, m Vincent and Joey have been painfully estranged
ever since Vincent divorced Joey's mother and left the decaying boardwalks
of Long Beach, Long Island for the anonymity of Manhattan and a successful
career with the NYPD. He lives his life in solitude, keeping his girlfriend
(FRANCES McDORMAND) at arm's length. The closest relationship he maintains
is with his partner, Reg (GEORGE DZUNDZA), and Vincent makes sure
that stops at the precinct door. As long as Vincent lives in the protection
of the present, he doesn't have to deal with the pain of his past.aking
a name for himself as a man intensely committed to his work. But on
his latest case, the stakes are higher for Vincent the suspect he's
investigating is his own son, Joey (JAMES FRANCO).
The murder investigation draws Vincent home to Long Beach, the self-proclaimed
"City by the Sea," where the past has been waiting for him to return.
In the course of his investigation, Vincent discovers that his own
unresolved pain and failures as a father have deeply influenced Joey's
life and the destructive choices he has made.
As a cop, Vincent must bring a criminal
to justice; as a father, he must find a way to save his son. Now he
will put his life on the line in order to do right by both his family
and his profession. |
