The Mastermind

Celebrated filmmaker Kelly Reichardt (First Cow, Showing Up) directs an unforgettable Josh O’Connor (Challengers) in The Mastermind.

In a sedate Massachusetts suburb circa 1970, O’Connor plays an unemployed carpenter and family man turned art thief who sets out on his first heist. With the museum cased and accomplices recruited, he has an airtight plan. Or so he thinks. 

A brilliant look at the folly of a disillusioned man, The Mastermind also features Alana Haim, Gaby Hoffmann, John Magaro, Hope Davis, and Bill Camp.

"The Mastermind may be a heist movie about a novice thief with a dumb plan. But Reichardt pulls it off like clockwork: This film is stupendously smart."
Ben Kenigsberg, RogerEbert.com
"Saying little but speaking volumes about American disaffection, apathy, self-interest, and foolishness, [O’Connor’s] performance bolsters this askew heist film and cements his status as cinema’s most magnetic new leading man."
Nick Schager, The Daily Beast
