Convict Billy Brown (Vincent Gallo) dreads going home so much upon his release from prison that he tries to get back inside. In desperation, Billy kidnaps Layla (Christina Ricci) from a tap dancing class and pleads with her to impersonate his wife and to accompany him home to visit his parents, Janet (Anjelica Huston) and Jimmy (Ben Gazzara). To Billy's dismay, Layla takes to her role enthusiastically. She breaks through to obsessive Buffalo Bills football fan Janet and the hard-edged Jimmy. Uncomfortable Brunch has built a dedicated following over the last 11 years by offering audiences in Orlando a rare opportunity to engage with difficult cinema in a communal setting—all while enjoying a great meal. Now, Tampa cinephiles will have the chance to experience this one-of-a-kind combination of discomfort and dining. About Uncomfortable Brunch Uncomfortable Brunch is a film series dedicated to screening cinema that challenges, disturbs, and provokes discussion. Originating in Orlando, it has become a staple for adventurous filmgoers looking to explore the extremes of the medium—over mimosas and breakfast tacos. Founded by Joshua Martin in 2014, with Kat Whitacre joining in 2017, Uncomfortable Brunch was designed to have audiences engage with difficult art in an unconventional way that also takes some of the self-seriousness out of it all. These movies shouldn’t just be seen because a historian says they should. They should be seen because they will make you feel something, albeit not necessarily positive, and if we aren’t feeling things, then what are we living for?
