The Only Living Pickpocket in New York simmers, cooks and never quite boils over through the course of its very civilized running time, making the narrative broth especially savoury. Carsten calls it a lovely character study: halifaxbloggers.ca/flawinthe… #moviereview @FlawInTheIris

There’s a quiet joy just spending time in the world of & Sons, riding an emotional pitch unsurprisingly funny but surprisingly melodramatic to be plausible for posh Brits. But it still feels real thanks to the performances: halifaxbloggers.ca/flawinthe… #moviereview @FlawInTheIris
