Suit up… From the Academy Award-winning writer of The Imitation Game (Graham Moore) comes THE OUTFIT, a gripping and masterful thriller that feels tailor-made to its star, Academy Award-winner Mark Rylance.
Set in the 1950s Chicago, the captivating crime drama follows Leonard Burling (Rylance), a working-class Englishman who fondly crafts suits for cutthroat mobsters. He ensures the gangsters are ‘dressed to kill’ and in turn, they keep his business afloat. However, after a mysterious package delivered to the shop tips off two of the young hoodlums (Dylan O’Brien and Johnny Flynn) to the existence a ‘rat’ in their gang, the expert tailor and his poised secretary Mable (Zoey Deutch) must outwit the dangerous group of mobsters in order to survive a fateful night.
With understated but wonderfully compelling performance from Rylance, the sublimely fashioned crime tale from Moore delivers subtle thrills and twists that never go out of style.
"The Outfit follows a pattern set by countless gangster flicks of the past, but its freshness is in the intelligence and surprise of the script. Like a well-made suit, it’s not old-fashioned — it’s classic."
