"(James Badge Dale) who's a loose-cannon "Mean Streets" De Niro to...(Vincent Piazza's)...brooding Keitel. "Polish Bar" has nary an idle or dull moment." -- VARIETY "Polish Bar is very much the story of someone who, caught in a tight spot has no choice but to "do what he's gotta do." It's an impressive drama that, as a meticulously-cast independent film, has a gritty style all its own." -- HUFFINGTON POST
Mucho post-production thanks to the lads at Anarchy Post. And a huge thanks to Chicago for being a super cool city! Also much love and gratitude to our terrific cast featuring Golden Brooks, Vincent Piazza, James Badge Dale, Maestro Harrell, Judd Hirsch, Richard Belzer, Chingy and Meat Loaf.
