The Only Living Pickpocket in New York follows Harry Lehman (Turturro), an old-school hustler and classic native New Yorker, who moves through life as an aging pickpocket trying to navigate the new digital world. Times are changing for Harry, as his daily take isn’t green bills and wristwatches; it’s credit cards and cell phones. And one unfortunate night, cryptocurrency and a handgun.

The film was financed by leading independent studio MRC and produced by Rian Johnson and Ram Bergman’s T-Street, with KATIE McNeill, Leopold Hughes and Ben LeClair producing and Johnson and Bergman executive producing. Johnny Holland also executive produces

MRC is the studio behind the film, as well as the recently released Wuthering Heights, G20 and All of You, and the upcoming A Place in Hell, The Best is Yet To Come, Unabomer, and Eloise and 2023’s Saltburn, American Fiction, and Fair Play.
