Cast: Oscar Isaac, Jessica Chastain, David Oyelowo
In New York City during the winter of 1981, statistically one of the most violent years in the city’s history, an immigrant and his family try to expand their business and capitalize on opportunities as the rampant violence, decay, and corruption of the day drag them in and threaten to destroy all they have built.
“‘A Most Violent Year’ is an engrossing, often beautiful film, and a breakout opportunity for Isaac, whose similarly self-contained performance as a sadly self-aware folk singer in ‘Inside Llewyn Davis’ was unfortunately overlooked last year.” -Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
“Recognize J.C. Chandor as one of the most exciting writers and directors working today – after all of three films.” -Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic
“It’s the kind of uncompromising movie we don’t see much of anymore. And it makes you nostalgic for a time when the world was worse and the movies were better.” -Chris Nashawaty, Entertainment Weekly
