Dominick and Eugene
Directed by Robert M. Young
Produced by Orion Pictures
A tender yet conflicted portrait of fraternal devotion tested by the competing demands of personal ambition and familial obligation, grounded in working-class struggle and trauma.
Dominick and Eugene are twins, but Dominick is a little bit slow due do an accident in his youth. They live together, with Dominick working as garbage man to put Eugene through medical school. Their relationship becomes strained when Eugene must decide between his devotion to his brother, or his need to go away to complete his training. Things are also not helped by Dominick's co-worker, or Eugene's budding romance.
