Celebrate Good Friday at the movies with the film that The New York Times called “A swift, sharp-edged gangster story in a classic mold. “
A combustible performance from Bob Hoskins is the fuse that lights this underworld saga, a landmark of British crime cinema.
Hoskins plays Harold Shand, an ambitious London mobster who, just as he attempts to close a major real-estate deal with the American Mafia, finds his crime empire rocked by a string of attacks, sending him on a ruthless quest to find out who’s responsible. Abetted by an ice-cool performance from Helen Mirren as Shand’s in-command moll, The Long Good Friday is not only a gripping gangster thriller but also a vivid portrait of late-1970s Britain—a powder keg of cultural and political tensions on the verge of explosion.
You won't want to miss one of the all-time great British gangster films on the big screen!
