Tony Tells A Different Story
The film has received the support of Bourdain’s estate, which offered the following statement.
We chose to support ‘Tony,’ because it is not a standard biopic and doesn’t attempt to summarize a life. Guided by the vision of director Matt Johnson, the film depicts one transformative summer in 1975 in Provincetown, Massachusetts. It is an interpretation as that part of Tony’s life will always remain somewhat unknown.
