- Synopsis
- Actor/director Billy Wirth's (LOST BOYS) feature film debut MacArthur Park is an insider's look at a Los Angeles that is real and rarely seen and a stirring portrait of crack cocaine addiction. In the park's drug-fixated shantytown, Cody (THOMAS JEFFERSON BYRD), a crack-addicted homeless man living in MacArthur Park, finally has a cause to live when his estranged son, Terry, shows up after five years. Terry needs Cody's signature to sell the house following the death of Cody's ex-wife. Cody, though, is held captive by his fellow park denizens and by the park itself, which is home and hell to all of them.
