The Long Good Friday - Trailer

submitted by michie

1 decade 7 years 1 week ago

The Long Good Friday (1980) is a British gangster film starring Bob Hoskins and Helen Mirren.

The film was directed by John Mackenzie from a script by Barrie Keeffe, with a soundtrack by the composer Francis Monkman. It was originally produced by ITC, who later attempted to bury the film.The rights were then bought by George Harrison's company Handmade Films. The film works on more than one level, as a conventional gangster film, or as an oedipal tale.

This is a proper London gangster film - it's not by Guy fakeypants Ritchie (about Ritchie from wiki: 'He adopted a cockney accent, despite being the stepson of baronet Sir Michael Leighton of Loton Park and a descendant of Edward I' - Ritchie likes to rough it with the commoners but in reality he's a mockney).
The Long Good Friday is the archetypal British gangster film, it has great actors; Bob Hoskins and Helen Mirren and even Pierce Brosnan turns up in it briefly.
It's worth a watch and really really deserves to get at least 10 votes for the front.
