Hell or High Water (David Mackenzie, USA, 2016)

  • The Lord Palmerston 33 Dartmouth Park Hill London, England, NW5 1HU United Kingdom (map)
A smartly crafted heist thriller that quietly peels back the layers from its macho male characters to reveal the pain and tenderness inside.
— Kate Muir, the Times

In West Texas, brothers Toby (Chris Pine) and Tanner Howard (Ben Foster) rob two branches of the same bank in an attempt to prevent foreclosure on the family ranch they’ve inherited from their mother. On their trail are Texas Rangers Jeff Bridges and Gil Birmingham. Written by Taylor Sheridan (Sicario, Wind River) this is a character-driven modern-day Western that also has plenty to say about the state of 21st century America.
