Inspired by real life events that occurred in 1970s Philadelphia, James Foley’s intense At Close Range is a criminally underseen crime drama. Brad Whitewood Jr. (Sean Penn) reconnects with his estranged father, Brad Sr. (Christopher Walken), a notorious and charismatic criminal. Fascinated by his father’s lifestyle, Brad Jr. forms a gang with his brother Tommy and begins stealing tractors. Their criminal activities quickly draw them deeper into Brad Sr.’s world, but their illicit pursuits take a grim turn when the gang cross the point of no return into murder. Now in too deep, Brad Jr. must now confront the chilling truth about his father’s nefarious actions. (Arrow Films)
