The King of Staten Island
The King of Staten Island is a 2020 American comedy-drama film directed by Judd Apatow, from a screenplay by Apatow, Pete Davidson, and Dave Sirus. It stars Davidson, Marisa Tomei, Bill Burr, Bel Powley, Maude Apatow, and Steve Buscemi, and follows a young man who must get his life together after his mother starts dating a new man who, like his deceased father, is a firefighter. The film was announced as Apatow's next project in early 2019, with the cast joining that April. Filming took place around New York City in June and July. The film has been called a "semi-biographical" take on the life of Davidson, whose father was a New York City firefighter who died in service during the September 11 attacks and who has had his own battles with mental illness. Originally intended to be theatrically released in the United States, the film was released digitally via Premium VOD on June 12, 2020, by Universal Pictures. It received generally positive reviews from critics.

Dude, why do you get these? Um, I don't know. I, uh... Whenever I'm going through something, I just, you know, I get one. It relaxes me and calms me down. Helps me, like, think things through, you know. - This relaxes you? - Yeah. You ever think of taking, like, a yoga class? Meditating? Why don't you just give blood? There's still needles involved. Yeah, that's a nice tattoo. It's aces.

Listen, everything's all good. It's, uh, really nothing. I just need a little assistance. This is something that needs to be taken care of now. What happened? Are you okay? Did you get shot? - Were you stabbed? - It's not really a big deal. My vape exploded in my pocket. Just... I didn't stretch right before yoga. I was playing tennis. I slipped. - Well, which one is it? - What do you want me to say? It was nothing. I just need some medical attention, but just by you. Dude, I got to call 911. I don't know what to do. No, no, no, listen, listen. No police, please. Not today. - What does that even mean? - No. We don't need to get the government involved into this situation. We can handle this together. Dude, I'm so high. I can't help you right now. I'm high, too. Well, then you know how I feel. What do you want me to do? Take a look at this. I need some sort of foam. - Holy shit! - You got some stitching? - Dude! - Do-do you have, like, a little needle? - Do you have something with a needlepoint? - No. What happened? It was a misunderstanding. It was an argument. But we're all friends again. We worked it out. You know how buddies get. Dude, I... We-we, we got to take you to the hospital - or you're gonna die. - I'm not gonna die. - Yes, you are. - I'm gonna die? Yeah, I'm positive. I'm positive that you're gonna die if we don't go to the hospital.

He's losing a lot of blood! - I need a gurney, please! - Oh, thank you. - All right, just hold... Put... - Thank you. Put pressure on it, all right? Hi. This guy's been, uh, either shot or stabbed. I don't know. He's been kind of vague about it. Sir, have you been shot? Stabbed? No. - I fell in a thorn bush. - Okay. Have him fill out this paperwork, and the doctor will call you when he's ready. Do me a favor, man. Can we just switch identities? What? No. Just let me use your driver's license. - We look nothing alike, dude. - No one's gonna know. Just trust me. I'm bleeding. It feels like I have to shit. Oh, Jesus Christ. I'm Margie's son. Do you know... I'm Margie's son. I don't know who that is. I'm just filling in. Okay. - I know. - My pain keeps coming. Tell that fucking cocksucker, my father, that I hate him and I love him at the same time and I forgive him. I-I-I do not need to do that, because you're gonna live.

Oh, my God. Can we at least close the curtain? - Oh. My guys. - Guys, people die in here, all right? - My guys. My guys. - Uh... - Aw, come on. Mom, I don't want to hug him.
