Bobby Green (Joaquin Phoenix) has turned his back on the family business. The popular manager of El Caribe, the legendary Russian-owned nightclub in Brooklyn's Brighton Beach, he has changed his last name and concealed his connection to a long line of distinguished New York cops. For Bobby, every night is a party as he greets friends and customers or dances with his beautiful Puerto Rican girlfriend, Amada (Eva Mendes), in a haze of cigarette smoke and disco music.But it's 1988, and New York City's drug trade is escalating. Bobby tries to keep a friendly distance from the Russian gangster who is operating out of his nightclub - a gangster that is being targeted by his brother, Joseph, an up-and-coming NYPD officer, and his father, Burt (Robert Duvall), the legendary deputy chief of police. We Own the Night is an emotional crime drama about a man who has chosen to hide his past only to discover that he has to confront an inevitable future. The film takes its title from the motto of the 1980s-era NYPD street crimes unit. Written and directed by James Gray (The Yards, Little Odessa).
