Film Description
A raw gangster thriller set in the East End of London at the end of the 1970s and the early 80s, The Long Good Friday sees local hoods trying to muscle in on the development of the Docklands.

With TV drama literacy, B-movie pace, and driven by its terrific brassy score, the furious rise and violent fall of Hoskins' Cockney mob boss was a comment on Thatcherite Britain.
