In
CITY BY THE SEA, Robert De Niro plays Vincent, a New
York City cop who is investigating a murder that leads
him back to the place where he grew up--Long Beach. A
born loner who is pained by his past but never shows it,
Vincent rarely opens up to his partner (George Dzunda)
or his girlfriend (Frances McDormand).
However, when his son Joey (James
Franco) is named as the murder suspect, he is challenged
to confront his duties as a father and a cop.
A constant dialogue between the good times and the bad,
the past and the present, and the choices made along the
way gives CITY BY THE SEA an emotional, contemplative
edge. In its opening scene, a colorful vintage
photograph of the happily crowded seaside at Long Beach
in the 1970s fades into the cold gray dilapidated locale
of the early 21st Century. Joey has similarly faded from
a cheerful young boy to a broken junkie loitering on the
boardwalk and living in an abandoned merry-go-round. And
while Vincent maintains a contented balance between work
and his noncommitted romance, it is clear that he feels
his best days have passed. The violence and neglect that
permeates life on Long Beach is the evil from which
Vincent must now save his son, a gesture which breathes
new life and new hope into the family he nearly deserted!!
