Set over the course of one night, this restless drama finds Nicky (Cassavetes) holed up in a hotel after the boss he stole money from puts a hit out on him. Terrified, he calls on Mikey (Falk), the one person he thinks can save him. Scripted to match the live-wire energy of its stars—alongside supporting players Ned Beatty, Joyce Van Patten, and Carol Grace—and inspired by real-life characters from May’s own childhood, this unbridled portrait of male friendship turned tragic is an unsung masterpiece of American cinema.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"header_lvl2 hideSmall\" data-feature-title-field=\"\"\u003eDIRECTOR-APPROVED BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-features-list\" data-special-features-field=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew, restored 4K digital transfer, supervised by director Elaine May, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew program on the making of the film featuring interviews with distributor Julian Schlossberg and actor Joyce Van Patten\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew interviews with critics Richard Brody and Carrie Rickey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio interview from 1976 with actor Peter Falk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrailer and TV spot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePLUS: An essay by critic Nathan Rabin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eNew cover by Connor Willumsen\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sharetools\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sharetools\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Criterion","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45346031468588,"sku":"715515224710","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0359\/2201\/8348\/files\/mikey-and-nicky-957-new-blu-ray-715515224710-8822992.jpg?v=1774803791","url":"https:\/\/www.orbitdvd.com\/products\/mikey-and-nicky-957","provider":"Orbit DVD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
