Synopsis
The Night Clerk (2020) is a crime thriller from director Michael Cristofer you can watch online on iFILM. Hotel night-shift clerk Bart Bromley secretly watches the guests through cameras he has hidden inside the rooms.
Bart is a young man on the autism spectrum. The cameras aren't a thrill — they're how he studies people, copying their expressions and rehearsing the small talk that comes so easily to everyone else. Then a woman is killed in one of his rooms, and the footage makes Bart the prime suspect. A hard-nosed detective leans on him for a confession. When a guest named Andrea takes a genuine interest in him, Bart realises he has to find the real killer before she becomes the next target. Tye Sheridan plays Bart, with Ana de Armas, John Leguizamo and Helen Hunt rounding out the cast.
A tight 90-minute story that rests on Sheridan's quiet, jittery performance: a suspect who simply can't lie convincingly. Stream The Night Clerk (2020) online on iFILM.
