Racer and the Jailbird (2017)
Directed by Michael R. Roskam this film stars Matthias Schoenaerts and Adele Exarchopoulos. A gangster that robs banks starts a relationship with a rich young woman that races cars.
This film is something of an odd marriage both in terms of the relationship of the central characters and the two halves of its story. The first half of the film is a very standard crime film but the second half turns surprisingly poignant. About the only criticism I have of the film is that we never see the male character have to consider the consequences his actions have on others.
3/5
