The movie 'Ezra' depicts the relationship between a father and his autistic son amid co-parenting struggles.
In hopes of getting some publicity before the launch, he auditioned for a movie despite having no acting experience.
Fitzgerald and his award-winning co-stars reunited in New York on Monday for an advanced screening of “Ezra” and Q&A session held exclusively for Tribeca Members. De Niro was asked how he makes a young newcomer feel comfortable working alongside one of Hollywood’s most accomplished actors. “No, it wasn’t,” De Niro said. “That’s it, you don’t care. You shouldn’t.”
Screenwriter Tony Spiridakis based the script on his relationship and experiences with his son, who is on the autistic spectrum. “It’s something I understand as far as having a child in Ezra’s situation,” De Niro said. “I liked the whole feeling of the film, the people involved…It had all the right feelings, and heart.”“I have all these boys and it’s just been my life since I’m 24 years old,” he said. “It’s the only thing I know, so I connected with the script primarily because of that.”
