#Iwatched #DavidCronenberg's #EasternPromises (2007) in which #ViggoMortensen plays the driver for a violent Russian mob family in London. When an English nurse inquires about a diary she found on one of her patients, she gets dragged into their dealings. The film is appropriately heavy-hearted and ruthless for a Russian mob thriller, violent only in pecise dosage, and outstandingly well acted with a script that holds some unforeseen twists.

#EasternPromises - sweet dreams! There are #films that I can watch over and over again. Favorite genres: #thriller, #filmnoir #filmsky #movies #cronenberg

Why is there so little talk about #Cronenberg's more traditional #thrillers? I personally like #EasternPromises a little better than the #comic adaptation #AHistoryofViolence, which is also quite convincing. I appreciate the „lack of compromise“ when it escalates. #filmsky #DC #Movies

Why is so little said about Cronenberg’s rather traditional, but great #thriller #EasternPromises? The beginning alone … Every few years I watch the excellent actors again. Sweet dreams. #movies #filmsky #film

Their characters I mean. Their performances are both great, if utterly infuriating -- for different reasons #FridayThrillerClub 🚬 #EasternPromises
