And with @Reckless_Edit on ONLY LIVING PICKPOCKET IN NEW YORK, our #NYFF coverage is officially complete. It's been a great year, thanks to all our brilliant contributors.
#NYFF: With the urgent pace of a Safdie production sans the graphic violence, Noah Segan's THE ONLY LIVING PICKPOCKET IN NEW YORK jolts forward like a rusting express train. Honored to review for @reverse_shot @TheNYFF @MovingImageNYC.
