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.

Bob Hoskins Forever
One of the finest performances of Bob Hoskins if not the finest. The range of emotions his character experiences in this film is palpable, and you can't take your eyes off him for a second all the way to the final second. You can feel what he feels, and he doesn't have to say a word.

Long Good Friday
Classic British thriller at it's best. Amazing cast and soundtrack as well. Bob Hoskins in his finest role and well worth having in your movie collection.
