Subscribe FreeThe Public Eye is the story of “The Great Bernzini,” a brash, 1940’s tabloid photographer (Academy Award® winner Joe Pesci) whose camera leads him into a shadowy underworld of mob violence, unlikely romance and dangerous corruption in this atmospheric mystery-thriller. Prowling the crime-ridden, midnight streets of New York City, Leon “Bernzy” Bernstein (Pesci) captures life’s seamy side in his lens. His real passion is his dream that one day his pictures will be recognized as works of art. A ravishing nightclub owner Kay Levitz (Barbara Hershey) praises his art and lures him into investigating the thugs trying to muscle in on her business. Bernzy plunges camera-first into a treacherous realm of black market scams and mafia gang war as he falls for the unattainable Kay.
