Motherless Brooklyn: Neo-Noir Crime Drama. IMDB pro-rating 7.2 with a 68% score from Rotten Tomatoes. Based on the Jonathan Lethem best selling novel. Lionel Essrog aka Brooklyn, played by writer, director, star, Edward Norton is a detective in New York’s 1950’s. Lionel is one of a handful of shamuses — Bobby Cannavale, Ethan Suplee and Dallas Roberts play the others — known as Minna’s men. Frank Minna (Bruce Willis), their boss, rescued them from an orphanage when they were young, and trained them to be private detectives. A meeting with some unsavory clients goes wrong and Frank ends up dead, leaving behind his business and a widow (Leslie Mann) who seems less than entirely heartbroken. It’s up to Lionel to figure out what happened. A trail of clues, hunches and accidents leads him down a rabbit hole of political intrigue and double-dealing. He finds himself mixed up with equal-housing activists (Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Cherry Jones), a jazz trumpeter (Michael Kenneth Williams), a Harlem nightclub owner (Robert Ray Wisdom) and a wild-eyed ranter (Willem Dafoe). Somehow it all connects to Moses Randolph (Alec Baldwin), the unelected power broker and master builder who runs the city with a ruthless hand and absolute confidence in his own vision.
