[1] Duffy is presented as a victim of his own ego: as the documentary progresses and his fortunes fade during the troubled production and distribution of The Boondock Saints, he becomes increasingly abusive to his friends, relatives and business partners.
Meanwhile, Duffy asks friends Tony Montana and Mark Brian Smith to manage The Brood and document his activities on film.
Duffy initially enjoys his new success, entertaining celebrities in his bar, dining at hotel restaurants, and moving into a production office where he holds teleconferences with major Hollywood producers.
Believing himself to be the next power-player in Hollywood, Duffy is filmed insulting actors who are in consideration for roles in The Boondock Saints including Ethan Hawke and Keanu Reeves.
Famed guitarist Jeff "Skunk" Baxter expresses interest in producing The Brood, singling out lead vocalist Taylor Duffy for particular praise.
He eventually spends all of the money he earned from his film and record deals, his bar closes, and he is unable to secure any work in Hollywood within six years after the production of The Boondock Saints.
"[2] Roger Ebert of The Chicago Sun-Times gave Overnight 3-out-of-4 stars, writing, "[Duffy's] family, we sense during one scene, has been listening to this blowhard for a lifetime, and although they are happy to share his success, they're sort of waiting to see how he screws up.
"[1] Comedian Adam Carolla listed Overnight as one of his favorite films in his 2010 book In 50 Years We'll All Be Chicks, describing Duffy's behavior as a case study for how fame and money can lead to negative consequences.
