Kingpin

Last August, we posted the six-minute documentary about Jimmy Tarangelo, aka the Man in the Van who has lived in his 20-foot-long Boise Cascade Aristocrat in the West Village for eight years.

Now, Brooklyn-based filmmaker Sean P. Dunne is back with another fascinating NYC character called "The Bowler," about a guy from Staten Island who hustles bowling for a living.

  1. very nice, but I'm curious as to why he's driving a limo, how is there no mention of that, bowling's not paying all his bills and is he living at his parents' house? anyway, awesome story.
