Barney's Version
First he got married. Then he got married again. Then he met the love of his life.
A warmly irreverent character study of a flawed, outspoken man navigating love, marriage, and self-discovery across a fully lived life.
The picaresque and touching story of the politically incorrect, fully lived life of the impulsive, irascible and fearlessly blunt Barney Panofsky.
