What Doesn't Kill You

The poster for the upcoming crime/drama “What Doesn’t Kill You,” starring Mark Ruffalo and Ethan Hawke has been released.

Based on events from director Brian Goodman’s life, “What Doesn’t Kill You” stars Ruffalo (Brian) and Hawke (Paulie) as friends who grew up like brothers on the gritty streets of south Boston. They do whatever it takes to survive, living by the code of their dog-eat-dog neighborhood. Petty crimes and misdemeanors grow into more serious offenses and eventually, they fall under sway to organized crime boss Pat Kelly (played by Goodman).

Meanwhile, Paulie plans “one last heist” but knows it will take both of them to pull it off. How can they escape the only life they know?
