Overview

Part of the 

strand.

Selected by our special guest, Nia Da Costa, as a film that has influenced her filmmaking career, Doug Liman’s black comedy thriller about a drug deal gone wrong is a kinetic ride stacked with 90s pop culture references. Luminous performances from Sarah Polley, Katie Holmes and Timothy Olyphant, Tarantino-esque interlocking timelines and a cracking soundtrack make this a real treat for the big screen.
