 Bill's Off Broadway | Restaurants | The Stranger, Seattle's Only Newspaper
It's been around forever (24 years, that is), but Bill's Off Broadway isn't quite an institution so much as an instinct, a place to get a friendly drink or a bite without making a statement.
Inside the restaurant all those years show--massive rubber plants and banana bushes have grown improbably leggy, the wine- colored paint is dulled by a layer of kitchen schmutz, and the cheesy whiff of a 10,000 pizzas hangs in the air.
With his neat, thick mustache and his long tumble of graying curls, Bryant looks like he just might be a magician or a prog rocker, and he speaks in a hyper-animated patter that shows he's got a lot on his mind.

 dOc DVD Review: Broadway Bill (1934)
Broadway Bill may not be a Capra picture of the highest order, but it's still got its charms; it was made just after the director's Oscar-sweeping It Happened One Night, and later disappeared for decades, when Capra re-made his movie as Riding High.
His bride is Margaret Higgins, of the Higginsville Higginses; Dan's father-in-law, the stout J. L., owns everything and everyone in town, and since he has no sons, he's determined to get his four daughters married off, and to use his quartet of sons-in-law as his executive vice presidents.
A solid Frank Capra picture that may not stand up with his best work, Broadway Bill still has a whole lot of charm, a smart script and a swell cast.
