(2022) is a masterclass in slow-burn tension, proving that you don’t need a sprawling set or a massive budget to deliver a top-tier thriller. Directed by Graham Moore (who won an Oscar for writing The Imitation Game ), the film is a tightly "tailored" neo-noir that feels as much like a stage play as a cinematic experience. The Story & Setting
Set in 1956 Chicago, the entire film unfolds within three rooms of a bespoke tailor shop. Mark Rylance stars as Leonard Burling, an English "cutter" (he insists he is not a mere tailor) who fled London after a personal tragedy. His shop serves a dangerous clientele: the local Irish mob. Leonard minds his own business until a single night spirials into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse involving a briefcase, a rat in the organization, and a series of high-stakes deceptions.
