The Long Good Friday — 4K 09/21/24

The Criterion Collection
4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray

It’s still the best gangster film of the post- Godfather era. Bob Hoskins and Helen Mirren are a striking couple at the top of London’s crime scene; Hoskins’ Cockney fireball Harold Shand is about to transform his crooked lifestyle with Mafia money and a land development scheme. Becoming the Posh Prince of the City has one hitch — unknown insurgents are firing up a turf war unheard of in England. Hailed as one of England’s best movies ever, John Mackenzie and Barrie Keefe’s tale is woven around the Easter holiday, with disturbing parallels to The Passion. On 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray from The Criterion Collection.
