trees lounge is the directoral debut from one of my favorite actors , steve buscemi .
he gave memorable performences in in the soup , fargo , and reservoir dogs .
now he tries his hand at writing , directing and acting all in the same flick .
the movie starts out awfully slow with tommy ( buscemi ) hanging around a local bar the " trees lounge " and him pestering his brother .
it's obvious he a loser .
but as he says " it's better i'm a loser and know i am , then being a loser and not thinking i am . "
well put .
the story starts to take off when his uncle dies , and tommy , not having a job , decides to drive an ice cream truck .
well , the movie starts to pick up with him finding a love interest in a 17 year old girl named debbie ( chloe sevigny ) and . . .
i liked this movie alot even though it did not reach my expectation .
after you've seen him in fargo and reservoir dogs , you know he is capable of a better performence .
i think his brother , michael , did an excellent job for his debut performence .
mr . buscemi is off to a good career as a director !
