Short description
The story of four characters whose lives intertwine amid the hustle and bustle of the Coney Island amusement park in the 1950s: Ginny, an emotionally volatile former actress now working as a waitress in a clam house; Humpty, Ginny’s rough-hewn carousel operator husband; Mickey, a handsome young lifeguard who dreams of becoming a playwright; and Carolina, Humpty’s long-estranged daughter, who is now hiding out from gangsters at her father’s apartment.

What's left behind the scenes

  • With the exception of the interiors of Ginny and Hampty’s apartment (played by Kate Winslet and James Belushi), the entire film was shot on Coney Island. The storefronts and signs of the shops there were changed to those that existed in the 1950s.
  • Many of the costumes worn by the extras belonged to people from the era depicted in the film. They were collected by costume designer Suzie Benzinger.
  • Costume designer Suzie Benzinger had trouble with the costume for Mickey, played by Justin Timberlake, as almost no photographs of lifeguard costumes from Coney Island from that era had survived, and those that remained were incomprehensible. Eventually, she reached out to Marty Olvin – a former Coney Island lifeguard who gave an interview to Esquire magazine in 1949.
