The Postcard Killings follows Jacob Kanon, a veteran New York City police detective whose daughter is murdered while honeymooning in London. When similar killings of young couples are reported in other European cities, he joins forces with a Scandinavian journalist to track down the person responsible. The investigation draws him into a series of staged murders, and he clashes with local authorities as he pursues the case beyond his jurisdiction.
The film is directed by Danis Tanović, whose earlier features include No Man's Land, September 11 and Tigers, and it was written by Andrew Stern and Ellen Brown Furman. Producers include James Patterson, Tracey Edmonds and Peter Nelson. Jeffrey Dean Morgan plays Jacob Kanon, with Famke Janssen as Valerie Kanon, Cush Jumbo as Dessie Lombard, Joachim Król as Inspector Klaus Bublitz, Steven Mackintosh as Detective Inspector Rupert Pierce and Naomi Battrick in a dual role. The production involved German, British and American companies and runs 101 minutes.
Released in 2020, the film drew mixed responses. On IMDb it holds 5.8 out of 10 from around 18,000 votes, while on TMDB it has 6.3 out of 10 from roughly 662 votes. A critics' rating of 4.2 out of 10 from 23 reviews places it below the audience scores on both platforms. It sits between Tigers and Not So Friendly Neighborhood Affair in Tanović's filmography.
