Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
HEAVY

Our take
Responsible for some of the more interesting superhero-blockbusters of recent years, James Mangold (Walk the Line, Logan) began his varied career with Heavy, winning praise (and prizes) at both Sundance and Cannes. A subtle, sensitive debut, co-starring Shelley Winters!
