City Island

City Island stars Andy Garcia as Vince Rizzo, a correctional facility officer who harbors a secret desire to be an actor. Julianna Margulies is his wife, a tough New York broad who rules over her house with an iron will to make sure the lives of her children turn out better than hers. Rounding out the cast are the two children, Vivian (Dominik Garcia-Lorido) and Vince Jr (Ezra Miller), who each harbor secrets of their own, and there’s a surprise guest named Tony Nardella (Steven Strait) who Vince brings home from prison one day on a work-release program for reasons that will soon set the Rizzo household reeling. The lengths the family members go to to try and keep their secrets safe is pretty funny, but what makes it all work, though, is the heart each of the actors brings to the comedy.
