The Mastermind (2025)

The Mastermind (2025) still

Kelly Reichardt · 110m · DCP

The Mastermind is a wry portrait of ambition, theft, and self-mythology, rooted firmly in 1970s Massachusetts. Chronicling a career of art crimes, the film reminds us that the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum was more than just the site of the only great Massachusetts art heist. With dry humor and archival intimacy, the thief is shaped as much by New England bravado as by the lure of beauty. It is local, legendary, and strangely reflective.
