The Tender BarThe feature film, Clooney’s eighth as director, is based on the memoirs of American author JR Moehringer, who found substitutes for his absent father at his uncle Charlie’s New York pub.

“It was nice. It was gentle. It was kind, and I don’t often do films like that,” Clooney told Reuters on Sunday, at the London Film Festival premiere of the drama. “I wanted to have something that didn’t necessarily reflect all the things that we’ve been going through. I wanted to have something that reminded us that we all kind of like each other in general.”

The film sees JR, played by Sheridan and newcomer Daniel Ranieri, being taken under the wing of his barman uncle played by Affleck, and finding shelter in his establishment. Influenced by the stories told by the bar’s colourful cast of patrons, JR matures from an insecure boy to an acclaimed writer.“This character is really smart and he’s a bit of a goofball and Ben is all of those things.”“Sixty changes the dynamic a little bit.

“It doesn’t mean not working, because working is really important to both of us, but also making sure that we also spend time with each other and with our family.”starts streaming globally on Amazon Prime from January 7, 2022. — Reuters
