When this prominent actor hits the screen, no matter what the role, he owns it. I don’t know what he’s like in real life, but in TV and films alike, he’s always bigger than life. DENNIS FARINA podcast excerpt: "(The Last Rites of Joe May) is a little more subtle than a lot of the roles I play. And it was pretty much there on the page. I read the first five pages and knew I wanted to do it. I knew it was a little gem."

And that’s what makes this Law & Order veteran’s work in The Last Rites of Joe May so compelling: he’s small.

When he returns to his apartment after a lengthy hospitalization only to find a naked woman in his shower, things seem to be looking up. But when he finds out it’s no longer his apartment, it’s hers, well, welcome to The Last Rites of Joe May, indeed. Check out the trailer for The Last Rites of Joe May and you’ll see what I mean.
