Story
Killing Them Softly is a crime thriller movie based on the 1974 novel Cogan's Trade. It is the story of a professional enforcer named Jackie Cogan (Brad Pitt), who is into the investigation of a heist that occurs during a high stakes, mob-protected game of poker. Cast: Brad Pitt, Scoot McNairy and others; Dir: Andrew Dominik.
Frankie (Scott McNairy) and Russell (Ben Mendelsohn, two not-too-bright ex-cons, are hired by John "The Squirrel" Amato to disrupt a high-stakes backroom poker game, rob the players and frame someone else for the job. That someone else is the card game's manager Markie Trattman (Ray Liotta), who's suspected of staging a previous poker robbery.
Unfortunately, the game was under the protection of the mob, whose lawyer (Richard Jenkins) is ordered to find those responsible and take care of them. He hires hitman Jackie Cogan (Brad Pitt) to track down the small-time punks.
Based on the 1974 crime novel Cogan's Trade by George V. Higgins.
