Relaxed Screening: Dead Man's Wire

Featuring captivating performances from Bill Skarsgård, Dacre Montgomery, Colman Domingo, and Al Pacino, Gus Van Sant’s (Good Will Hunting) latest recreates the strange, fascinating true story of the 1977 kidnapping that made aspiring Indianapolis entrepreneur Tony Kiritsis into an eccentric outlaw folk hero. While resonating powerfully with present-day class resentments, it’s also darkly funny, wildly entertaining, and rife with appealing supporting characters.

Tony Kiritsis (Skarsgård), a former real estate developer puts a dead man’s switch on himself and the mortgage banker who did him wrong, demanding $5 million and a personal apology.
