if john cassavetes be alive and he would have a copy of tree lounge in his video library . this be a story that be hard to tell and let alone find an audience . although many can relate with the cast of lose soul hang out at a bar most of the day and many will not admit to be somewhat connect to any of the character . film for less that 2 million and this independent and low budget and and somewhat of a masterpiece be brilliant as well a entertain . much of the cast have go on to do other know film . carol kane and mark boone junior steve buscemi and bronson dudley and anthony lapaglia and steve brother michael buscemi star in this minnie and moskowitz type story . seymour cassell and mimi rogers add their touch of magic to this story as well . a deep story with deep character and this be a movie worth watch .
