"The upcoming biopic Tony does its best to capture that spirit, with Dominic Sessa stepping up to play the famed celebrity chef and author during the earliest days of his career."
"Bourdain's estate supports the film, saying in a statement that 'it is not a standard biopic and doesn't attempt to summarize a life... It is an interpretation, as that part of Tony's life will always remain somewhat unknown.'"
