The last complete Philip Seymour Hoffman before he was taken way to early from us. It's a simple story of young teen of an average family who is hit on the head on a construction site & everything was covered up.

This family comes from God's Pocket in NYC (one of the roughest suburbs in NYC) and the wife of the deceased boy insisting that she gets to the bottom of it all.

Hoffman is sensational as the broken Step-Father who is trying to navigate through this drama & also needing to raise the money for the funeral. Edgy, violent & engaging, this also a directional debut from John Slattery from TV's Mad Men.
