MacArthur Park

THOMAS JEFFERSON BYRD & B-REAL   

MacArthur Park is the powerful directorial debut of actor Billy Wirth . Wirth´s film was initially intended as a documentary on the homeless drug addicts living in Los Angeles´ once elegant, but now crime-infested, MacArthur Park. While interviewing park residents for the documentary, Wirth learned of a script written by a former playwright-turned-crack-addict, Tyrone Atkins, who had lived in the park but was now serving time in prison. Atkins´ manuscript was eventually found and filmed by Wirth as a loosely disguised biographical fiction centered about park resident and former trumpet player Cody (Thomas Jefferson Byrd), who lost both his career and his family to crack cocaine addiction.
