Directed by Josh Safdie, The Pleasure of Being Robbed leans on a strong ensemble — Eléonore Hendricks, Josh Safdie, Ariel Schulman — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2008.
