James Gray's "Paper Tiger" follows Irwin Pearl, a middle-class engineer in 1986 Queens, whose life is disrupted when his successful but morally questionable older brother Gary proposes a lucrative business venture. Adam Driver delivers a career-best performance as Gary, the charming ex-police officer whose influence draws Irwin into dangerous territory while exploring themes of family obligation and the American Dream.
