The Drop
THE DROP is a new crime drama from Michaël R. Roskam, the Academy Award nominated director of Bullhead. Based on a screenplay from Dennis Lehane (Mystic River, Gone Baby Gone), THE DROP follows lonely bartender Bob Saginowski (Tom Hardy) through a covert scheme of funneling cash to local gangsters – “money drops” in the underworld of Brooklyn bars.
Under the heavy hand of his employer and cousin Marv (James Gandolfini), Bob finds himself at the center of a robbery gone awry and entwined in an investigation that digs deep into the neighborhood's past. Also featuring Noomi Rapace, Matthias Schoenaerts, Ann Dowd and John Ortiz.
Critic Reviews:
- " ‘The Drop’ reminds us of what Gandolfini always did well: providing support, heft, and color, in the tradition of our finest character actors. " – Jason Bailey
- " The film is just three degrees off being brilliant yet is always creepingly moving, and I loved its lived-in squalor. " – Antonia Quirke
- " As a vehicle for those two actors, The Drop is gangbusters. " – David Edelstein
