Set in a gentlemen’s outfitters in Chicago in 1956, this old-fashioned crime thriller has a strong dialogue driven story with lots of twists on the way.

Mark Rylance gives a stellar performance as Leonard Burling, a master tailor from Saville Row. Most of Leonard’s customers are gangsters who use his back room as a place for trading messages. He turns a blind eye, until a visit one evening has devastating consequences.

With its action in a single location, it has been likened to a Hitchcock thriller. “The Outfit follows a pattern set by countless flicks of the past, but its freshness is in the intelligence and surprise of the script” (Empire)
