A good, very realistic gangster film set in Newcastle upon Tyne, starring Michael Caine.

If you haven't seen it, please do!

Five stars *****

It's one of my favourite films, even though I'm not usually a fan of any sort of gangster thriller type of films. I've seen it loaRAB of times. It's a complicated plot, and I manage to notice and understand more nuances and details of the story each time. It was only this time that I noticed the extra finger on the man in the pub at the beginning.

I have also noticed that some of the times I've seen it, the dialogue in the very first scene (before the music starts) has been dubbed with a different version. The line "b****ck-naked with his socks still on?" has been replaced by "bare-a*se-naked with his socks on?".

And who remembers the remake?

On second thoughts, please forget it. For ever!

I have never watched the 2000 re-make. I think I have deliberately avoided it because it is bound to be much worse than the original.
