A MOST VIOLENT YEAR
A MOST VIOLENT YEAR is a searing crime drama set in New York City during the winter of 1981, statistically the most dangerous year in the city’s history. From acclaimed writer/director J.C. Chandor, and starring Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain, this gripping story plays out within a maze of rampant political and industry corruption plaguing the streets of a city in decay. Chandor’s third feature examines one immigrant’s determined climb up a morally crooked ladder, where simmering rivalries and unprovoked attacks threaten his business, family, and – above all – his unwavering belief in the righteousness of his own path. “J.C. Chandor has made a movie that quietly but ferociously immerses us in a time and place, with atmosphere done in minimal yet evocative strokes.” (Joe Neumaier)
