Instead, the WWI vet is a self-proclaimed anti-establishment outlaw, despite being the son of the Boston Police Deputy Superintendent. Joe’s not all bad, though; in fact, he’s not really bad enough for the life he’s chosen. Unlike the gangsters he refuses to work for, he has a sense of justice and an open heart, and both work against him, leaving him vulnerable time and again—in business and in love. Driven by a need to right the wrongs committed against him and those close to him, Joe heads down a risky path that goes against his upbringing and his own moral code. Leaving the cold Boston winter behind, he and his reckless crew turn up the heat in Tampa. And while revenge may taste sweeter than the molasses that infuses every drop of illegal rum he runs, Joe will learn that it comes at a price.

fragments of conversation swirling around him; he writes poetry into a
notebook; he walks his dog; he stops in a bar and drinks exactly one beer; he
goes home to his wife, Laura (Farahani). By contrast, Laura’s world is ever changing. New dreams come to her
almost daily, each a different and inspired project. Paterson loves Laura and
she loves him. He supports her newfound ambitions; she champions his gift for
poetry. The film quietly observes
the triumphs and defeats of daily life, along with the poetry evident in its
smallest details.
