Harry Lehman (John Turturro) is an aging pickpocket who plies his trade with ever-diminishing returns in a drastically changed New York. Wallets stuffed with cash have been replaced by easily canceled credit cards, and Harry struggles to make ends meet as he cares for his disabled wife, Rosie. When he unwittingly purloins and fences a valuable USB stick, Harry finds himself in a race against time to return the loot or face the rage of a vengeful crime family.

Reviews

“”…a twilight fable of a city that’s changing, whose spirit remains distinct and grand and full of mystery, much like the remarkable actor at its center.”

Bilge Ebiri
New York Magazine / Vulture

“Noah Segan’s “The Only Living Pickpocket in New York” is a film of rich pleasures, just as its protagonist is struggling to find any riches of his own.”

Chase Hutchinson
TheWrap

“Turturro is unshowy but magnificent in his best film role in years, an honorable hustler who still carries himself with dignity despite a lifetime of regrets and a world gradually leaving him behind.”

David Rooney
The Hollywood Reporter
