Synopsis

Jon Robin Baitz's Broadway play brought to the screen about a gay man fighting for the survival of his publishing house and family.

Review

A searing drama that depicts a family struggle over the direction of the publishing house built with Holocaust tomes. Tony Goldwyn and Ron Rifkin star as father-son in a battle between traditions. Based on the successful off-Broadway play by Jon Robin Baitz, with Rifkin reprising his role of the headstrong patriarch. Tony Goldwyn plays the gay son, who wants the company to publish his lover's novel. The company currently publishes very serious holocaust tomes that don't sell. A family and an old publishing company is torn apart over the issue in this searing gay themed drama.
