Two Family House
The only way to find out what you love is to risk everything you have.
Directed by Raymond De Felitta
Produced by Filbert Steps Productions
A character-driven drama about working-class dreams and unexpected compassion, where a man's self-centered ambitions are challenged by the arrival of a vulnerable pregnant woman and her troubled family.
Buddy Visalo (Michael Rispoli) is a factory worker, a frustrated crooner who once had a shot at the big time. Buddy's dreams of greatness have been reduced to an endless series of failed moneymaking schemes. His latest is buying a two-family house for him and his wife, Estelle (Katherine Narducci) and converting the ground floor into a neighborhood bar where he can perform. The wrench in the works is that he also inherits the upstairs tenants, Mary,a pregnant Irish girl fresh off the boat (Kelly Macdonald) and her abusive, alcoholic husband, Jim (Kevin Conway). As Buddy's gang of Italians tries to handle the situation, the girl goes into labor, and a baby is born, forcing them all to confront the limits of their tolerance and compassion.
