Nightmare Alley. 2021. USA/Mexico/Canada. Directed by Guillermo del Toro. Screenplay by del Toro, Kim Morgan. With Bradley Cooper, Rooney Mara, Cate Blanchett. 150 min.

When charismatic but down-on-his-luck Stanton Carlisle (Bradley Cooper) endears himself to clairvoyant Zeena (Toni Collette) and her has-been mentalist husband Pete (David Strathairn) at a traveling carnival, he crafts a golden ticket to success, using this newly acquired knowledge to grift the wealthy elite of 1940s New York society. With the virtuous Molly (Rooney Mara) loyally by his side, Stanton plots to con a dangerous tycoon (Richard Jenkins) with the aid of a mysterious psychiatrist (Cate Blanchett) who might be his most formidable opponent yet.

Virtual Cinema is not available to Annual Pass members. Virtual Cinema screenings are not available outside the US.

This film accompanies The Contenders 2021 Redux.
