Moehringer’s memoir, “The Tender Bar” is based on a fatherless, aspiring writer (Tye Sheridan) pursuing his dreams with the help of his Uncle Charlie (Ben Affleck). J.R. grows up in his uncle’s bar, while his mother (Lily Rabe) struggles to give her son a fortunate life. Meanwhile J.R.’s dad is a deadbeat radio DJ nicknamed “The Voice” (Max Martini) who shows up every now and then to disappoint his son.

The Tender Bar

December 17, 2021

JR is a fatherless boy growing up in the glow of a bar where the bartender, his Uncle Charlie, is the sharpest and most colorful of an assortment of quirky and demonstrative father figures. As the boy’s determined mother struggles to provide her son with opportunities denied to her — and leave the dilapidated home of her outrageous if begrudgingly supportive father — JR begins to gamely, if not always gracefully, pursue his romantic and professional dreams, with one foot persistently placed in Uncle Charlie’s bar.
