Synopsis
The American (2010) is a crime thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Anton Corbijn and starring George Clooney as a contract killer trying to quietly exit the business.
After an operation in Sweden goes badly wrong, Jack retreats to a small hilltop town in the Abruzzo region of Italy. The job is simple: wait, stay invisible, and build a custom weapon for an unnamed client. Instead Jack strikes up an unlikely friendship with a local priest and falls for a woman named Clara (Violante Placido). For the first time in years he feels something close to ordinary life — which, in his line of work, is the most dangerous thing imaginable.
Corbijn, the Dutch photographer-turned-director known for Control, shoots The American as a near-silent European art thriller: long takes, mountain landscapes, minimal dialogue. Clooney carries the film almost entirely without words. Stream The American (2010) online on iFILM.
