GOLDEN GLOBE NOMINATION FOR BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR - JARED LETO
Academy Award winners Denzel Washington (“Training Day,” “Glory”), Rami Malek (“Bohemian Rhapsody”) and Jared Leto (“Dallas Buyers Club”) star in the psychological thriller “The Little Things.” John Lee Hancock (“The Blind Side,” “Saving Mr. Banks,” “The Founder”) directed the film from his own original screenplay.
Kern County Deputy Sheriff Joe “Deke” Deacon (Washington) is sent to Los Angeles for what should have been a quick evidence-gathering assignment. Instead, he becomes embroiled in the search for a killer who is terrorizing the city. Leading the hunt, L.A. Sheriff Department Sergeant Jim Baxter (Malek), impressed with Deke’s cop instincts, unofficially engages his help. But as they track the killer, Baxter is unaware that the investigation is dredging up echoes of Deke’s past, uncovering disturbing secrets that could threaten more than his case.

"The Little Things is an engrossing, nerve-fraying watch"

"The Little Things stands on its own feet...well worth watching and I will not be surprised if Leto receives another Oscar nomination." - The Australia
Malek and Washington are electric together in this atmospheric, moody thriller that will keep you guessing and on the edge of the proverbial seat. You won't be able to shake this one off for a very long time." - Chicago Sun-Times
"[The Little Things] knows it has a job to do, and it does that job well. It entertains." - Rolling Stone
