Buffalo '66
Billy Brown just got out of jail. Now he’s going to serve some real time. He’s going home.
Directed by Vincent Gallo
Produced by Gray Daisy Films, Muse Productions
An offbeat character study of a damaged ex-con's delusional attempt to reconstruct his life through kidnapping and pretense, blending dark comedy with genuine pathos.
