The Plot Against Harry (1969)

“Bares unhealed and unspoken wounds of New York Jewish life."
-- Richard Brody, New Yorker

“...one of those comedies with a sprung rythm..."
-- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

SYNOPSIS: Dour Jewish mobster Harry Plotnick is finally released from prison after two decades. Returning to a very different world, Harry tries to ease back into his criminal ways on his old turf, but it soon becomes clear that he's thoroughly out-dated. When he encounters his ex-wife and his now-adult daughter, whom he doesn't even know, he decides to clean up his act.
