WHO LIT THE FUSE THAT TORE HAROLD'S WORLD APART?
Harold Shand (Bob Hoskins) is a businessman with great ambitions. Spotting the development potential of London s derelict Docklands area years before the Thatcher government, he tries to broker a deal with his American counterpart (Eddie Constantine) that will make them both millions. But who is killing Harold s other associates and blowing up his businesses and why?
Universally regarded as one of the greatest British gangster films ever made, The Long Good Friday rocketed Hoskins to international stardom. He s given sterling support from Helen Mirren (as his upper-crust mistress), Paul Freeman (Raiders of the Lost Ark) and Derek Thompson (Casualty), and there s even an early appearance from future James Bond Pierce Brosnan.

Excellent film, excellent restoration
This is a superb film, one of the best and most critically acclaimed British crime films. The restoration is top notch, it is compared inside one of the special features how different it is to what was available before on home video - the sound is far more legible and visuals are clear yet authentic.

Loved the location photography.
Time capsule that falls a bit short today. Plot feels a bit forced to be edgy though. A curiosity i somewhat recommend. Great presentation by Arrow.
