Bloody Nose, Empty Pockets

Bloody Nose, Empty Pockets is an American documentary film by the Ross brothers that premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival.[1]

Background

It was directed by Bill Ross IV and Turner Ross. It has a 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and critics wondered if it is a true documentary or partly fiction, perhaps as something that is a new genre, but regardless, generally praised the film.[2][3] It is about a dive bar in Las Vegas named the Roaring 20s, though due to cost restraints (of filming in Las Vegas) it was actually filmed inside a bar in Terrytown, Louisiana.[4][5][6][7] It includes a number of characters at the bar and tells vignettes about them.[8] It runs for one hour and thirty-eight minutes.[9]
