THE ROMEOWS (Retired Old Men Eating Out Wednesdays), a feature documentary directed by Kevin Raman and Robert Sarnoff about a “Band of Brooklyn Buddies” who break bread, and each other’s chops, every Wednesday evening, will open in theaters on July 19, 2013. 

What is the THE ROMEOWS?

Older people are using little blue pills, hooking up on Match.com, running marathons, flying planes and safely ditching them in the Hudson. Pull up a chair at this movable feast, break bread with this Brooklyn Band of Buddies who know each other for more than half a century as they break each other’s chops. Their generational perspective connects with “No Country for Old Men” and “Gran Torino” while repelling notions of “Grumpy Old Men” and “Bucket List”.

“When We Get Together We Get Younger” is the theme song playing in the background, highlighting the fun, affection and intensity of this weathered, vibrant group continuing to continue their affirmation of life on Wednesday evenings.

No avatars, cyborgs, no Facebook, nothing virtual about this half century friendship. It’s the real deal.
