It’s 1970s America and everything is on the brink of change. Josh O’Connor gives a marvellous performance as a young father from a good background but now regressing into the working class.

He cockily believes he’s clocked the failures in the local art museum’s security and plans the perfect heist. Without the connections in the criminal class to build a foolproof crew, it becomes a series of missteps, and he is forced on the run. One of American’s greatest living independent filmmakers, Kelly Reichardt gives us her most accessible film. Once again, she gives shape to the inner worlds of ordinary American people.

This is a clever wry work with a wonderful production design creating moments and images for audiences to ponder long after the screen has gone dark. A film of quiet brilliance.
