Andy Garcia's "City Island"
City Island
The average American family has secrets, but nothing like those that the Rizzo family keeps. In the new movie City Island, Andy Garcia stars as Vince Rizzo a corrections officer and aspiring actor. Vince stops at nothing to cover up his evening acting classes even if it means his wife thinks he’s having an affair. His wife is still smoking, his daughter is supposed to be in college but has become a stripper, and he has a long-lost son who just happens to be a prisoner at the facility where he works. It seems everyone has a secret and will stop at nothing to avoid the truth. Andy Garcia and director/producer Raymond de Felitta stop by the studio to chat with us about the film.
