During the course of a long summer, it becomes clear to two young, lost, and bored Korean War vets that their future lies outside Indianapolis—amid the gleaming towers of Manhattan, where they will find glory, fame, and lots of women. Set in the 1950s, this novel by acclaimed author Dan Wakefield seethes with pent-up frustration and confusion, and nearly every episode bubbles with hilarity. Narrated by Ben Affleck, who starred in the film adaptation, Going All the Way perfectly captures its time and place.

This ABRIDGED, censored version used for the movie eliminates many important scenes in order to be "woke". Most scenes centering on religion and Jewish culture are gone. Like where they talk about the Riviera swim club that doesn't allow Jews. Or Sonny's hatred of religion. Several Ted Key bar scenes. It's watered down crap. Get the real version.

Disappointing ABRIDGED movie version
