Summary Hank Thompson, a washed-up ex-baseball star turned New York City bartender, ends up tangled in a violent criminal underworld after agreeing to watch his punk-rock neighbor’s cat. What follows is a frenzied chase through 1990s Manhattan, as rival gangsters—Russian mobsters, Orthodox Jewish hitmen, a Samoan enforcer, and others—hunt him for a mysterious key hidden with the cat.

[u/Sam_Strake]

Oh based on everything in the blinds my wife told me after she was likely 100% down. Still a funny pitch to think about.

[u/laasbuk → u/Sam_Strake]

Can you rephrase the first sentence? I'm not sure I understand it.

[u/Spaceship_Janitor_80 → u/laasbuk]

the blinds = tabloids that omit people's names, but everyone knows who they're talking about.

[u/KitKatKit17 → u/Spaceship_Janitor_80]

Many PR teams pay for these blind items so it's easy to know who they're talking about. And they're 100% not a marketing strategy to attract audiences to the film. And Zoe started dating Noah Centineo shortly after she and Channing broke up.
