| Blu Ray

Mickey (Philip Seymour-Hoffman) makes ends-meet by partaking in petty crime and gambling with his friend Arthur (John Turturro) and then spending most of it in the local flea-pit bar before stumbling home to his long-suffering wife Jeanie (Christina Hendricks). When his mentally unstable step-son Leon is killed by a co-worker on a construction site – a crime that is quickly covered up and explained away as an ‘accident’ nobody in the depressed blue collar neighbourhood of God’s Pocket is particularly sorry except of course his own mother.... Mickey tries to bury the bad news along with the body but when Jeanie demands the truth Mickey finds himself stuck in a struggle between a body he can’t bury a wife he can’t please and a debt he can’t pay.

Philip Seymour Hoffman, Christina Hendricks, Richard Jenkins and John Turturro star in this comedy drama directed by John Slattery and adapted from the novel by Pete Dexter. In the 1970s in the working-class town of God's Pocket, troubled 20-something Leon (Caleb Landry Jones) is seemingly accidentally killed on a building site. At the request of Leon's mother Jeannie (Hendricks), who is convinced there was some foul play, her husband, small-time criminal Mickey Scarpato (Hoffman), investigates the death with the help of his friend Arthur 'Bird' Capezio (Turturro). Meanwhile, the well-known journalist Richard Shellburn (Jenkins) is also searching for the truth behind the incident and gets close to Jeannie in the process.
