City of Ghosts
Jimmy Cremming (Matt Dillon) finds himself in Bangkok after fleeing the investigation of an insurance scam in the Unit...
Elite pianist Tom Selznick, played by Elijah Wood, is poised for a triumphant return to the stage after a crippling bout of stage fright forced him into a five-year hiatus. However, his comeback concert at a sold-out Chicago venue quickly spirals into a terrifying nightmare. Seated at a priceless grand piano, Tom discovers a menacing note scrawled on the sheet music, warning him that one single wrong note will cost him and his wife, played by Kerry Bishe, their lives. A sniper, voiced by John Cusack, has him locked in his crosshairs from a high-rise across the street, turning every delicate keystroke into a life-or-death decision. Under the direction of Eugenio Mira, this taut, single-setting thriller ratchets up the tension with every passing minute. Tom must navigate the treacherous demands of a virtuoso performance while deciphering the killer’s cryptic motives, all while the audience remains blissfully unaware of the deadly drama unfolding on stage. Grand Piano is a sleek, stylish, and nerve-shredding experience that masterfully orchestrates suspense with a minimalist, high-concept premise.
