★★★★ – Guardian. Art school drop out and amateur thief James (O’Connor) plots a half-baked heist on a local municipal museum in 1970s suburban Massachusetts.
"★★★★ – quietly gripping" – Guardian
"an intoxicating, transportive experience" – IndieWire
In 1970s Massachusetts, hapless art school dropout James (O’Connor, La Chimera, Challengers) plots a half-baked heist on his local municipal museum. In her singular humanist style, Kelly Reichardt (First Cow) skewers the conventions of the heist film to deliver an enthralling, blackly comic portrait of banality, failure and cowardice, powered by another pitch-perfect turn from Josh O’Connor.
