An aging ex-boxer gangster working as muscle for a Boston crime boss receives an upsetting diagnosis.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A wearied crime story about a dying man fighting against his own past and the underworld's inescapable gravity. It's less about the thrills of violence than the quiet desperation of someone running out of time to become something better.
