Synopsis

Road to Perdition (2002) is a crime drama directed by Sam Mendes — watch it online on iFILM. Tom Hanks plays Michael Sullivan, an Irish mob enforcer who has served crime boss John Rooney (Paul Newman) for so long that the lines between loyalty and family have blurred beyond recognition. Jude Law, Daniel Craig and Stanley Tucci round out a cast that makes the film one of the most stacked crime pictures of its decade.

When Sullivan's wife and younger son are murdered, he and his surviving boy Michael Jr. (Tyler Hoechlin) hit the road across a frozen Midwest winter. The son knows what the father does for a living now. The father has to figure out what that means for both of them before Rooney's hired killer Harlen Maguire catches up.

Sam Mendes adapted Max Allan Collins' graphic novel, and cinematographer Conrad L. Hall shot it in near-monochrome winter light, earning a posthumous Oscar for Best Cinematography. Stream Road to Perdition (2002) online on iFILM.
