Cogan's Trade Film Adaptation Now Titled Killing Them Softly

Cogan's Trade by George V. Higgins

We actually haven't heard much recently about the film adaptation of Cogan's Trade by George V. Higgins. The film stars Brad Pitt as Jackie Cogan, a mob enforcer called in when a high-stakes card game under the protection of the Mob is taken.

But the film apparently has a new title; Variety reporter Jeff Sneider tweeted last night, "Mini-scoop: The Brad Pitt pic Cogan's Trade has been retitled Killing Them Softly."

Hmm ... kind of an odd choice, in our opinion. It's not as if Cogan's Trade is a common film title. Maybe that's why they pay the film producers the big bucks, to make important decisions like this!

Cogan's Trade … err, Killing Them Softly … opens in theaters September 21st, 2012.
