What do Al Pacino, Colman Domingo, Cary Elwes, and Bill Skarsgård have in common? A new thriller from Gus Van Sant, the director of Good Will Hunting (1997) and Psycho (1998) and a man with undeniable range. The film stars Dacre Montgomery (Stranger Things) as the president of the Meridian Mortgage Company. He’s taken hostage by Tony Kiritsis (Skarsgård), who brandishes a sawed-off shotgun rigged with a—hold for the title—“dead man’s wire.” Now in theaters. —Carolina de Armas
