Film Review: Jessica Chastain, Oscar Isaac Endure ‘A Most Violent Year’
Submitted by PatrickMcD on January 17, 2015 - 10:25amCHICAGO – The effect of violence, centering on the roughest statistical year for it (1981) in New York City history, becomes a flashpoint for the way business has always been done. If someone isn’t intimidating their competitor with lawyers or shady marketing practices, a few hired goons can do the trick. Oscar Isaac takes the beating, both real and metaphorical, in writer/director J.C. Chandor’s “A Most Violent Year.”
