HAPPY HOUR

Sunday, November 14, 2004 - 1:00pm 
Facets Multi-Media, 1517 W. Fullerton, Chicago


Once upon a time it appeared that Tulley (Anthony LaPaglia) had a glittering future mapped out ahead of him. The son of a successful writer, his early literary efforts suggested he would easily follow in his father's prestigious footsteps. Then the booze got him. A slave to the bottle and the bar, Tulley spends his daylight hours counting down the clock in an interminable office job. His coworker and best friend Levine (Eric Stoltz) is a keen companion in the pursuit of alcohol, frequently propping up the bar next to Tulley in the duo's local watering hole, where the sound of the HAPPY HOUR bell is like music to the patrons' ears. But Tulley's life is irretrievably altered one fateful night, when schoolteacher Natalie (Caroleen Feeney) settles down snuggly at the bar, and comfortably matches him drink-for-drink. A love affair begins, and Natalie attempts to coerce Tulley back into writing.  "Terrific performances by Anthony LaPaglia, Eric Stoltz and Caroleen Feeney infuse this well-written comic drama with a realistic ease." - Sheri Linden, THE HOLLYWOOD REPOPTER
