murky crime noir drama
It's the early 90's in the midwest. Cliff (Scoot McNairy) is a struggling traveling salesman. His previous workplace seems to have been shady and history is closing in on him. When it surfaces, he gets fired. He turns to Ricky (Kit Harington), a criminal from his past.
This is a murky crime noir drama. The murky confusion can throw off some viewers, but it is very fitting of the crime noir genre. I love the idea that a salesman and a conman are two sides of the same coin. I don't really understand Ricky's plan and that does detract from my enjoyment. Ultimately, I really like the murky atmosphere.
