Big Night
Big Night is a 1996 American motion picture drama with comedic overtones. The film tells the story of two immigrant brothers from Italy who own and operate a restaurant called "Paradise." One brother, Primo (Tony Shalhoub), is a brilliant, perfectionist chef who chafes under their few customers' expectations of "Americanized" Italian food. The other brother, Secondo (Tucci), is the restaurant's manager, who is enamored with the possibilities presented by their new endeavor and life in America. Despite Secondo's efforts and Primo's magnificent food, their restaurant is failing.
- Directed by Campbell Scott and Stanley Tucci. Written by Joseph Tropiano and Stanley Tucci.
