James Gray's latest is a period neo-noir set in 1986 with an early appearance of the Russian mob as the pendulum leading to a pit of danger and despair (does that happen to sound familiar?) for two second-generation immigrant brothers (Adam Driver and Miles Teller).
The film also features Scarlett Johansen in what I believe is her first full-blown matronly role.
PAPER TIGER was well-received at Cannes and will start its American theatrical run on November 20th.
Hera are a few reviews for it...
