A MOST VIOLENT YEAR<\/strong><\/p>\n

A24<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reviewed for Shockya by Harvey Karten. Data-based on Rotten Tomatoes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Grade:\u00a0 A-<\/strong><\/p>\n

Director:\u00a0 J.C. Chandor<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screenwriter:\u00a0 J.C. Chandor<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cast:\u00a0 Oscar Isaac, Jessica Chastain, David Oyelowo, Alessandro Nivola<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screened at:\u00a0 Dolby88, NYC, 11\/24\/14<\/strong><\/p>\n

Opens:\u00a0 December 31, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

New York City remains the world\u2019s most exciting metropolis, but not so far back, it was also a dangerous one.\u00a0 Murders and rapes approached an all-time high in the early 1980s, and if you were in a dog-eat-dog business, you faced not only the wrath of your competitors but you enemies\u2019 determination to finish off your company with methods that would not be unfamiliar in the movie \u201cThe Godfather.\u201d<\/p>\n

With a style best known to imitate that of the late, great Sidney Lumet, whose \u201cPrince of the City\u201d stars Treat Williams as a detective uncovering police corruption in 1981, writer-director J.C. Chandor\u2014known for \u201cMargin Call\u201d (following investment bank activities during a 24-hour period) is in his m\u00e9tier. Chandor, mounting a criticism of laissez-faire capitalism during the financial crisis in 2011, focuses again on New York City. This time Chandor presents a tantalizing, slow-moving, respectful-of-audience nourish thriller filmed by Arri Alexa mostly in Manhattan\u2019s outer boroughs.\u00a0 Locations include Maspeth and Long Island City in Queens, and the most dramatic scene on the 59th Street Bridge leading from Manhattan to Queens.<\/p>\n

Not only has Chandor given life to his taut script, whose thrills are punctuated by Alex Ebert\u2019s music.\u00a0 He is graced by two terrific performances from the always reliable and nowadays, seemingly ubiquitous Jessica Chestain and from a breakthrough performance from Oscar Isaac.\u00a0 Isaac, who played a scamming American tour guide in Athens in \u201cTwo Faces of January\u201d and in \u201cInside Llewyn David\u201d as a young singer navigating the folk scene in the Greenwich Village of 1961, rivets the attention.\u00a0 Here he is the charismatic capitalist, the modern Horatio Alger, who risks all to develop his empire.\u00a0 He is in the business of selling oil for heating in New York, is faced by violent competitors who poach customers from one another, and even worse, who send thugs out to hijack trucks, to beat up the drivers, and to sell thousands of gallons of oil to wholesale customers.<\/p>\n

Wearing the wide-lapel collar on his camel\u2019s hair coat\u2014designed by John P. Goldsmith whose production design puts us squarely into the eighties, Oscar Isaac performs in the role of\u00a0 Abel Morales, an ethical fellow married to Anna Morales (Jessica Chastain), who is the now-entirely-honest daughter of the man he worked for as a mere truck driver.\u00a0 Determined to own rather than lease a former garment building on the water\u2014which would give him a location that could squeeze out the competition–Abel, together with his lawyer Andrew Walsh (Albert Brooks), negotiates with Josef (Jerry Adler), the Haredi owner whose terms are oppressive.\u00a0 Abel must pay a deposit, which he would lose if he does not come up with the balance of $1.5 million within 30 days, but his attempts to rustle up the bucks in an honest way are frustrated by the hoodlums who attack his driver, even seeking to enter his mansion-like home.<\/p>\n

Though an immigrant, Abel has shed traces of his foreign origins, even instructing his sales force on the fine points of closing, which include accepting the hospitality of the customers (choose tea instead of coffee because tea is classier), taking the most expensive cookie offered (that shows you\u2019re good enough), and looking the customers in the eye for a bit longer than is comfortable.<\/p>\n

As the story progresses and violent incidents mount up, Abel pushes his luck during the turf war, sympathizing with those on his staff who are beaten, their trucks robbed to sell the oil.\u00a0 We in the audience are immersed in a world that few if any would know about, a world that has its own codes and jargon with robberies of which those of us in our theater seats would probably know nothing.<\/p>\n

With terrific side roles from Albert Brooks as Abel\u2019s lawyer, Alessandro Nivola as a competitor whose residence holds an indoor tennis court, and David Oyelowo as Lawrence, an intrusive prosecutor, \u201cA Most Violent Year\u201d scores thanks in large part to performances from Chastain and Isaac.\u00a0 It is also both a critique of capitalism and a homage to our economic system, one which rewards the winners and society as a whole but which threatens to destroy those who cannot really make it.\u00a0 Now more than ever we feel the truth of Fred Ebb\u2019s kudos to New York, \u201cIf I can make it there\/ I can make it anywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rated R.\u00a0 125 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><\/p>\n
