The Missing Person

Streaming video - 2010

This noir drama stars Oscar-nominated actor Michael Shannon (*Boardwalk Empire, Nocturnal Animals*) as John Rosow, a private detective hired to tail a man, Harold Fullmer, on a train from Chicago to Los Angeles. Rosow gradually uncovers Harold’s identity as a missing person; one of the thousands presumed dead after the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. Persuaded by a large reward, Rosow is charged with bringing Harold back to his wife in New York City against his will. Ultimately Rosow must confront whether the decision to return Harold to a life that no longer exists is the right one. Official Selection at the **Sundance Film Festival**, Special Mention Award Winner at the **Moscow International Film Festival**. "*(N...oah Buschel) crafts a convincing noir tale, with a sense of realism that makes the experience pleasingly voyeuristic.*" - Peter Hartlaub, ***The San Francisco Chronicle***
