United States | 2020 | Bill and Turner Ross

The final night at a Las Vegas dive bar facing its own “last call” is the subject of the fifth film by Ohio-born sibling cineastes Bill and Turner Ross (45365). An affecting mix of the staged and the unscripted, this evocative, empathetic look at the hard-drinking denizens of a local watering hole should serve as some sort of balm for barflies missing their own hangouts during the current COVID crisis. “Genuinely great, a singular and moving glimpse of loneliness, community and finding the strength to face another day.” –L.A. Times. Cleveland premiere. 98 min.
