A Most Violent Year (2014) is J.C. Chandor's crime thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Set in a New York winter that broke records for murder, it follows an immigrant heating-oil seller fighting to stay clean in a city built on shortcuts.
Abel Morales has scraped together the money for a deal that will lift his company into a different league. Then his trucks start getting hijacked on the road, a district attorney digs through his books, and his wife Anna, a gangster's daughter, thinks he's too soft for this town. Abel has thirty days to close the deal without picking up a gun or staining his name. Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain play a couple holding their composure as the ground shifts under them.
Chandor skips the shootouts for the quiet underside of the gangster picture: camel-hair coats, Bradford Young's icy cinematography, deals settled in conversation. Albert Brooks and David Oyelowo turn up in sharp supporting roles. Stream A Most Violent Year (2014) online on iFILM.
