Motherless Brooklyn Movie Serie Immersive Experience <\/strong><\/em>as a 2019 American neo-noir<\/a>\u00a0crime film<\/a>\u00a0written, produced, and directed by\u00a0Edward Norton<\/a>, based on the\u00a01999 novel of the same name<\/a>\u00a0by\u00a0Jonathan Lethem<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Set in 1957 New York City, the film stars Norton as a\u00a0private investigator<\/a>\u00a0with\u00a0Tourette syndrome<\/a>, who is determined to solve the murder of his mentor.\u00a0Motherless Brooklyn<\/i>\u00a0also stars\u00a0Bruce Willis<\/a>,\u00a0Gugu Mbatha-Raw<\/a>,\u00a0Bobby Cannavale<\/a>,\u00a0Cherry Jones<\/a>,\u00a0Alec Baldwin<\/a>,\u00a0Ethan Suplee<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Willem Dafoe<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A passion project of Norton’s ever since he had read Lethem’s novel in 1999, the film\u00a0took nearly twenty years to go into production<\/a>. Although the book is set in contemporary times, Norton felt the plot and dialogue lent themselves more to a\u00a0noir<\/a>\u00a0setting\u2014moving it to the 1950s, with many added plot points inspired by\u00a0The Power Broker<\/a><\/i>. Other members of the cast joined by February 2018, and\u00a0principal photography<\/a>\u00a0began that same month.<\/p>\n

Motherless Brooklyn<\/i>\u00a0premiered at the\u00a046th Telluride Film Festival<\/a>\u00a0on August 30, 2019, and was theatrically released in the United States on November 1, 2019, by\u00a0Warner Bros. Pictures<\/a>. It underperformed at the box office, grossing $18.6 million against a $26 million budget. The film received mixed reviews from critics, with praise for its ideas and Norton’s performance, but criticism for its length and deviations from its source novel. At the\u00a077th Golden Globe Awards<\/a>,\u00a0Motherless Brooklyn<\/i>\u00a0received a nomination for\u00a0Best Original Score<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Motherless Brooklyn<\/i>\u00a0is also Bruce Willis’ final theatrically released performance (aside from a limited theatrical release for\u00a0Midnight in the Switchgrass<\/a><\/i>), as he shifted over to a\u00a0direct-to-video<\/a> market for the remainder of his career before retiring in 2022.<\/p>\n

In 1950s New York City, Lionel Essrog works at a detective agency alongside Gilbert Coney, Danny Fantl, and Tony Vermonte. Their boss, Frank Minna, rescued them as children from an abusive orphanage. Nicknamed \u00ab\u00a0Motherless Brooklyn\u00a0\u00bb by Frank, Lionel has\u00a0Tourette syndrome<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0OCD<\/a>, often alienating him from people, but his strong\u00a0verbal<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0photographic<\/a>\u00a0memory<\/a>\u00a0make him a good detective.<\/p>\n

Working a secret case, Frank asks Lionel and Gilbert to shadow him to a meeting. Lionel listens over the phone as Frank presents documents that threaten a business deal for a man named William Lieberman, who’s there with his assistant Lou and an extremely large henchman. When Frank tries to negotiate a high price, the men force him to take them to the originals. Lionel and Gilbert follow in their car, arriving just as Frank is shot. They take him to the hospital, but Frank dies.<\/p>\n

Frank’s widow Julia leaves Tony in charge of the office. Lionel begins wearing Frank’s hat and coat, and a matchbook in Frank’s pocket leads Lionel to an African-American owned jazz bar in\u00a0Harlem<\/a>. He realizes that Frank’s findings involve Laura Rose, who works for Gabby Horowitz fighting\u00a0urban renewal<\/a>; poor and minority neighborhoods are being bought out and demolished, forcing out their residents. Lionel goes to a public meeting where Moses Randolph, a commissioner of several development authorities, is loudly contested by Horowitz and the audience. Stealing a reporter’s credentials, Lionel talks to a man named Paul who raged against Moses at the meeting and tells him Moses is the real power in the city government, even beyond the mayor.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
