Two guys with different sets of problems find themselves bonding through unexpected circumstances in this independent
comedy drama from writer and director
Edward Burns.
Jack Stanton (
Edward Burns) is a former New York City cop who has been trying to establish a new career as a private detective, though his level of success is best indicated by the fact his landlord is about to evict him for not paying the rent.
Jack finally lands a paying client when he's referred to
Abe Fiannico (
David Krumholtz), a high-school baseball coach whose wife,
Kitty, has disappeared. The only clue
Abe has to her whereabouts is a recent newspaper photo that shows a washed-up
rock star hanging out with several women, one of whom is a dead ringer for
Kitty.
Jack sets out to scour the Big Apple in search of
Kitty, and
Abe tags along; a friendship grows between the two men, and
Jack begins to wonder why regular-guy
Abe ever got mixed up with a woman who doesn't seem to have much use for him. Also featuring
Rachel Dratch and
Chris Parnell,
Looking for Kitty premiered at the
2004 Tribeca Film Festival.
