The Outfit (2022)
9/10
Terrific movie, with a stellar performance from Mark Rylance.
4 January 2023
Having arrived on Chicago from Saville Row, London, master tailor Leonard has to survive a deadly night at his Tailor's shop.

It is the perfect game of cat and mouse, after the long opening sequence, and opening fifteen minutes, I wasn't too sure it was going to be the kind of movie I'd enjoy, however, it opens up, and from that moment onwards it's a dramatic tale of intrigue and suspense. I could imagine this being done on the stage.

Well paced, original, I don't have many films to compare it to, it is quite a unique watch. The visuals are very much on point, as you'd expect the fashions are exquisite.

Not w big cast list, but every single character has purpose, and plays a rich part in this well woven mystery.

Mark Rylance, (it staggers me how much his voice sounds like Donald Pleasance,) delivers a career best performance as The Master cutter, I thought he was phenomenal here.

Loved it, 9/10.
