The Charlestown neighborhood of Boston is renowned for churning out a high number of armed robbers| generation after generation. These robbers never leave their
Charlestown life on their own volition| the neighborhood where there is an unwritten code to protect that lifestyle. Such robbers include friends Doug MacRay| James
Coughlin| Albert 'Gloansy' Magloan and Desmond Elden. Doug and James in particular treat each other like family| as the Coughlins have realistically been as such to
Doug since Doug's mother ran off and Doug's father| Stephen MacRay| was sent to prison. James' single mother sister| the drugged out Krista Coughlin| and Doug have a
casual sexual relationship. The foursome carry out a mostly successful bank robbery| but due to circumstances take the bank manager| Claire Keesey| hostage for a
short period before releasing her physically unharmed. They find out that Claire lives in Charlestown| so they want to ensure that she did not see anything that
could incriminate ...
Tense, smartly written, and wonderfully cast, The Town proves that Ben Affleck has rediscovered his muse -- and that he's a director to be reckoned with.
