I Hired a Contract Killer
1990| 1h 20m| IMDb 7.0
In his first collaboration with Aki Kaurismäki, iconic French star Jean-Pierre Léaud proves a perfect fit for the director’s droll and deadpan, not-quite-comedy style. Absurd and existential, the London-set I Hired a Contract Killer is a rare and fascinating outsider’s view of late-80s Britain.
Director: Aki Kaurismäki
