Two linked stories merged into one: a motorcycle stuntman begins a career in bank robberies to take care of his family, an event which has monumental effects on the life of a rookie policeman who finds himself on his trail.
A very interesting dramatic concept that can take the viewer by surprise if they venture into watching while ignorant of the plot. Showcasing some good performances, and quite original, The Place Beyond The Pines is an interesting story about different life situations where the options are not as clear as white and black, although maybe the tendency in this film is more towards a dark grey.
