    I watched this movie at its premiere in Sun Valley and I loved the character-driven storytelling that gives you a fun, hilarious and edgy insight into what Hollywood is really like. It feels like a refreshing A24 type of film that will keep you guessing until the end. Had a blast and would highly recommend.

Thick as Thieves

Two master thieves go at odds with one another as one sets the other up for a crime. The first, a suave pro who does his job and then hides in his own privacy, listening to old jazz records and caring for his ailing dog, Wally. The other is a local gangster with a taste for the finer life, who decides to eliminate the competition. This ignites a war between the two men and their aides. An angry mob boss and a female police officer try to sort the mess before things get too out of hand.
