High stakes, higher returns. Crime 101, a crime thriller with a dazzling all-star cast consisting of Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Halle Berry, and Barry Keoghan. The film is adapted from Don Winslow’s acclaimed novella of the same name, and helmed by Bart Layton as writer and director.
Layton is no stranger to stories of people living outside the shadow of the law, and he saw the perfect setting for his next endeavor in Crime 101. “I felt like many of the characters are slightly trapped in that sense of ‘I'm never going to feel good about my place in the world unless I have this,’” Layton says. “L.A. is a place that really nurtures that sense of: if you want to really be somebody and feel like you are of value, you need to have all the external trappings of great success. I think status anxiety is a constant thing.”
